[[end-link]]When Josh Ritter came into the VBR studios today to chat a bit before his show at the Haunt tonight, courtesy of Dan Smalls Presents, we never expected that he'd unveil new music! Josh said some incredibly insightful things about his musical vocabulary, religion, and playing music in a farmhouse in Maine. He played "To the Dogs or Whoever" from 2007's Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter for us, and also treated us to a BRAND NEW song!

This is called "Light of My Lantern," and you heard it here first and find the full interview right here!
