Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals will release their first studio album in eight years, Call It What It Is, in the wake of their recent reunion tour. The album, due out April 8 via Stax Records, follows up 2007’s Lifeline and, as Harper told Rolling Stone, “has been a priority for a while now.”

The band has also announced a U.S. tour in support of the record, which will kick off April 2 at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. Every online ticket order for the tour will include a copy of the record upon its release. All ticketing details are available via Harper’s website.
