Album Notes & Community Reviews

Now operating solely as the vehicle for frontman Jonny Pierce, this deeply introspective release processes severe childhood trauma and complex romantic dissolution. 'Jonny' pairs his remarkably vulnerable, sentimental lyricism with the band's signature chiming, indie-surf guitars and breezy indie pop hooks. It serves as a bittersweet, emotionally resonant reflection on healing and queer identity.
