Laura Jane Grace Announces New Album

Laura Jane Grace In The Trauma Tropes will release Adventure Club on July 18th. Today they’ve shared “Mine Me Mine.” Polyvinyl Record Co. and Laura Jane Grace are pleased to announce the Friday, July 18release of Adventure Club from Laura Jane Grace In The Trauma Tropes, a new and incendiary, 12-song collection exploring the archetypical hero’s journey tropes from classic Greek mythology: love, war, trust, betrayal, virtue & vice, iced coffee drinks — it’s all there, and so is the fun! Featuring the help of Grace’s wife and collaborator Paris Campbell Grace (vocals) and Athens, Greece-based musicians Jacopo “Jack” Fokas (bass) and Orestis Lagadinos (drums), Adventure Club is the product of a month-long, life-changing trip and songwriting retreat in Greece that came by way of a Fellowship grant through the Onassis Foundation that provided Grace with the inspiration to create some of the best punk she’s ever made. Like classic power-pop propelled by Oi!’s revolutionary oomph, Grace’s new single, “Mine Me Mine”, lambastes endless capitalist avarice, or how it is used to manufacture suffering for others. Stream the track on YouTube HERE. Pre-save, pre-add and pre-order Adventure Club HERE. Additionally, Grace will be making numerous North American appearances this spring and summer with Murder By Death, Alex Lahey, PET NEEDS and Rodeo Boys in select markets starting next week. Tickets for all shows are on sale via Grace’s website HERE, and a full listing of dates can be found below. --- Please consider becoming a member so we can keep bringing you stories like this one. ◎ https://chorus.fm/news/laura-jane-grace-announces-new-album-3/
