The first album from Left Arm Tan, titled Jim, began with a song called Wish, which would go on to win Song of the Year from SavingCountryMusic. Songs from the album would be played on Texas radio and would chart in Europe. All while the band sat back quietly and began writing for their next project, Thurm. The new EP picks up where Jim left off, but with a greater assurance that LAT is indeed redefining what the cross section of Americana and Texas Country looks like.
