Centro-matic and South San Gabriel frontman Will Johnson paired with producer/engineer Matt Pence to record Scorpion (out September 11 via Undertow/Thirty Tigers) in the wooded outskirts of Denton, Texas. “You Will Be Here, Mine” sneaks up on you, building slowly to full-blown emotional catharsis; the pain is obvious in the strain of Johnson’s voice. Country-leaning and powerfully emotional, it sounds like it was recorded somewhere isolated and Southern, like, well, the outskirts of Denton, Texas. Download the track below.
