Greg Freeman releases a new Single, ‘Salesman’

Listen Now

Greg Freeman today has released his new track ‘Salesman’, the final single before his highly anticipated sophomore album Burnover, out 22nd August via Transgressive Records/Canvasback Music. The track is accompanied by a Guy Zozak-directed video and follows singles ‘Gallic Shrug,’ ‘Curtain,’ and ‘Point and Shoot,’ which earned early praise and support from Rolling Stone, Stereogum, Paste, Brooklyn Vegan, Consequence, and more.

“‘Salesman’ is technically a serious song about something sad,” Freeman explains. “But also one of the more upbeat songs on the album. It’s also the only one we recorded pretty much fully live, and with my touring band.”

Freeman is about to leave the US to play End of The Road festival, followed by a sold out headline show at The Lexington on 3rd September, which he will cap off with an October U.S. tour supporting Grandaddy, and a headlining West Coast tour in December.

When Freeman quietly released his debut LP I Looked Out in 2022, it had no PR campaign, label, or music industry promo, but still garnered praise from notable critics, with Steven Hyden of UPROXX calling it “my favorite album of 2022 that I discovered in 2023,” and Paste Magazine naming it among the 25 Best Debut Albums of the 2020s. The word-of-mouth success of that release had Freeman on a relentless tour schedule.

‘Salesman’ is out today. Burnover is due for release August 22nd via Transgressive/Canvasback.
