MJ Lenderman has announced a new album, 'Manning Fireworks'
Check out the video for lead single 'She's Leaving You'.
MJ Lenderman has announced his new album, 'Manning Fireworks', set for release on September 6th via ANTI-. Alongside the announcement, he has released the lead single and video, 'She's Leaving You'.
Following last year's live album, 'And the Wind (Live and Loose!)', and 2022's surprise breakthrough 'Boat Songs', Lenderman shares, "There are feelings of self-doubt, world weariness, and worry present here, but the conditions are rendered with a clarity and care that make his songs feel like short films. However, none of this is esoteric or obscure, Lenderman simply offers everyday anxieties and enthusiasms in uncanny ways. There is an abiding sadness to Manning Fireworks, but it feels friendly and familiar, the kind of troubles you've always known."
