The Handsome Family "Singing Bones" Vinyl & CD Reissue Out Today
Friday, 8th May 2026
The Handsome Family’s ‘Singing Bones’ is re-released today. Originally out in 2003, it was the sixth album from Brett Sparks and Rennie Sparks, marking their first recordings after relocating from Chicago to Albuquerque—a move that infused their sound with desert heat, noir atmosphere, and a distinctly “Western Gothic” edge. The album gained global recognition when “Far From Any Road” became the theme to True Detective, reaching millions of listeners worldwide, and now returns newly remastered and, for the first time in Europe, on vinyl. Both the LP and CD include a deluxe CD edition, featuring previously unreleased demos and live recordings.
