M. Ward‘s “highly-anticipated” new release, Hold Time will hit the digital and physical shelves on February 17th, 2009. The follow up to the well received Post-War features guest performances from Lucinda Williams, Jason Lytle (ex Grandaddy) and the actress Zooey Deschanel (aka She). Also, in what may come as no surprise to people who follow music, Matt will be touring in support of the new album and he’ll be playing a show at the historic Apollo Theater on February 19, 2009 (buy tickets).

The presale for the US shows begins Tuesday, December 9 and ends Thursday, December 11. The presale password is HOLDTIME. Tickets for all shows will go on sale to the general public on Friday, December 12.
