Gearing up to release his second full-length, We Are For The Wild Places, this Friday, 7 August, the folkster behind Avalanche City (a.k.a. Dave Baxter) is exclusively streaming his album on theMusic.com.au today. 

The New Zealand native has already been piling up positive reviews from Kiwi media for his first single, Inside Out, said to be "a plaintive ode to a friend's broken relationship". 

The album was mixed by Death Cab For Cutie's own Chris Walla in Seattle, with Avalanche City taking to Australia this September with Conrad Sewell on a tour that has a whopping nine of its ten shows sold out.
