Whitmer Thomas is perhaps best known as an actor-comedian, but he’s keeping the ball rolling with his singer-songwriter career. The Alabama native is following up last year’s Tilt EP today with the news that he’s signed to the esteemed Fire Talk Records. He’s got a new single too, a drowsy indie-country lope called “Candy Corn” that finds him singing repeatedly about “the agony of aging.” It’s produced by the very busy Brad Cook. Thomas explains, “This is my broadest attempt to write about what youth felt like, looking back as an aging knucklehead.”
