Hi Friend!
How has summer been treating you?
Avoiding the wildfire smoke, I hope!
In case you haven’t heard, there’s a new Soft Punch single out called “Here / Now.” Last week, Week In Pop debuted the music video, along with a thoughtful article about it. Creem Magazine included it in their Spotify playlist on Friday. You can stream it now wherever you like.
The album comes out on September 15th, but if you’re excited already, you can head over to Bandcamp to preorder a digital copy or a luxurious violet vinyl version.
The exquisite album jacket and violet-colored vinyl.
I’m still working on getting a college radio campaign ready to go, lining up vinyl to get sold in record stores, shooting more music videos, and handling the countless little things that have to happen for an album to get a proper release. I’m both the artist and the record label for this project, so I have twice as much to do–and I have to stay within the limits of my health to do it!
If you want to help me out without spending a dime, you can just follow my various social media accounts (this stuff actually matters to certain people in the music industry):
For those of you hungry to hear more music, check out the latest Jenny Lewis record. It’s got a really nice ’70s FM Radio vibe, like Linda Ronstadt meets Loretta Lynn. Bongos and pedal steel. Bouncy singles and moody ballads. It’s a good time.
Humbly Yours,
Rye
