“Drenched in summer nostalgia, Putnam’s vocals pop,” says
PopMatters about “Spinning,” the latest single from The March Divide. In its premiere
coverage of the music video for the track, The Big Takeover calls the clip “an
engaging performance,” and the song “emotively heartfelt and lyrically
perceptive.”

San Antonio-based songwriter Jared Putnam aka The March
Divide has added another 40 dates to his seemingly non-stop touring
schedule. See below for full itinerary stretching into 2019. Putnam is supporting the release of his
summer 2018 album, Anticipation Pops, which has continued to earn him much praise into
the fall months for his voice, lyrics, and melodies on what is being acknowledged
as his most heartfelt and revealing album to date.
Over the course of three albums, five EPs, numerous
singles, and a batch of cover songs in a mere half-decade, Putnam’s mostly one-man project The March Divide has delivered a seemingly unending stream of songs
that have established him as one of the best rock songwriters working today.
Anticipation Pops is the fourth album by The March Divide, and was produced by Mike Major (At The Drive In,
Sparta, Gone Is Gone.) Hear
“Spinning” now via PopMatters and check out the music
video at The
Big Takeover.
“This record feels like a new direction,” Putnam says.
Putnam claims that the work on Anticipation Pops
represent a thematic “consistent inconsistency,” different from his more
planned past albums. And while he dials that back when he agrees that the album
is cohesive, he’s either being modest, or is far enough outside of his comfort
zone now not to notice that Anticipation Pops is actually his
most thematic record of all.
Writing ten personal songs from a unique perspective,
but relatable to everyone, is an artistic goal most songwriters never achieve. Putnam affirms that he made Anticipation
Pops by deciding, “this is what I’m doing, take it or leave it.”
Apparently he didn’t know that the result would be the work his fans can care
for most of all.
Anticipation Pops, the fourth full-length album by The March Divide is out now on the artist’s recently co-founded Slow Start Records label. Hear it now
on all major streaming services. CD and vinyl available at Bandcamp.
