He has released a video from that night of a special extended version of the album's title track, performed with a string quartet.

You can watch it here.

He goes on to say that "there's a true kinship that happens in this trio ... There's no other band like them." Mountain Man resumes its US tour in March and has just announced several new dates in May and June.
