Indie rock’s rising star MJ Lenderman has dropped his latest single, ‘Wristwatch,’ just days before the release of his eagerly anticipated new album Manning Fireworks this Friday via ANTI-.
Recorded at Asheville’s Drop of Sun Studios and co-produced with Alex Farrar, Manning Fireworks promises to be another indie gem. Fans of slacker anthems and dry humour will find plenty to love, with songs like ‘She’s Leaving You‘ and ‘Joker Lips‘ leading the charge.
Listen to ‘Wristwatch’ below:
The album is already shaping up to be an instant classic, combining introspective lyrics with punchy, disorienting humour. Lenderman’s songs are like little short films—filled with everyday anxieties and delivered with a rawness that sets him apart from the rest of the indie scene.
And if you’re keen to catch him live, MJ Lenderman is heading out on a European and UK tour this November. Shows in London, Manchester, and Dublin are sold out, so if you haven’t secured a ticket yet, you should get a move on.
