Alejandro Escovedo will release his 11th solo album Big Station, June 5th, 2012 on Fantasy Records/Concord Music Group. Produced by Tony Visconti, Big Station finds the ever-evolving Texas rocker highly-charged with spirit and purpose. The albums hard snap and sharp arrangements recall much of the great music Escovedo absorbed as it blasted out of AM and FM radios throughout the 60s and 70s. Largely co-written with frequent collaborator Chuck Prophet, the albums 12 songs bristle with tension and hope as Escovedo fights to keep faith in a changing world and hold onto love.

Big Station follows Escovedo's 2010s critically lauded Street Songs of Love, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and earned rave reviews from Rolling Stone, The NY Times, The Wall Street Journal, Entertainment Weekly, and many more. Earlier this month, Escovedo took SXSW by storm with a slew of stellar performances including two appearances with Bruce Springsteen.

Escovedo, undeniably on the short list of celebrated Texas songsmiths, brings the entirety of his hard-won poetic gift to Big Stations 12 songs. He artfully chronicles his hometown and own personal decline in "Bottom of the World," saying "Austin's changed, it's true/Show me what hasn't" as he watches "the cities of the world reduced to ashes" on television. Similarly, on the ultra danceable pop number Party People he intones, "One time I knew just how to get around knew all the secrets in this dirty town."
