Listen to Mike Mogis play on the new M. Ward single

When M. Ward decided it was time to record a new album, he called on old friend and fellow folk monster Mike Mogis for some help.

A portion of Ward's upcoming album, "A Wasteland Companion," was recorded in Omaha at ARC and Mogis appears on several tracks.

Though the album doesn't come out until April 10, Ward released the first single today. Much like other Ward productions, "Primitive Girl" has a Buddy Holly rock sound paired with driving piano power pop. Mogis, who's also a member of Bright Eyes, plays organ on the track.

Listen to it below. What do you think?
