There's been quite a bit of buzz ever since Spafford announced their sophomore studio effort, For Amusement Only, the band's first proper record in nearly 6 years. While pre-order for the May 4th release is happening now via iTunes and Amazon, first singles "Leave The Light On" and "Hollywood" are now available for streaming on all digital platforms.

Since their debut studio record, Spafford has released 5 official live records and their hour-long impromptu improv Abaculus: An Improvisational Experience, but fans have long speculated when the next studio album would be ready. The wait is finally over. For Amusement Only will include studio renditions of fan favorites "Leave the Light On," "Ain't That Wrong," and "Mind's Unchained," as well as new songs like "Fuel" and "When It Falls." Please find a full tracklisting below.

Although Spafford first toured outside of the Southwest during the tail end of 2016, the group has quickly transformed into a nationally touring powerhouse – nearly every 2018 tour date thus far has sold out in advance. In addition to the album release, later this year, Spafford will make debut appearances at Red Rocks Amphitheater for Bisco Inferno, Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival and Firefly Music Festival. A full list of upcoming dates can be found below, including the recently announced tour alongside Umphrey's McGee this coming August.
