North Carolina singer/songwriter and musician, MJ Lenderman has released another song from his forthcoming album, Manning Fireworks, which is due for release on September 6 via ANTI-. Today’s new track is called “Joker Lips,” which follows the release of “She’s Leaving You” and “Rudolph.” Watch the Ben Turok directed “Joker Lips” video below and find MJ Lenderman tour dates.

“She’s Leaving You” was one of our Songs of the Week.

Manning Fireworks follows his 2023 live album, And the Wind (Live and Loose!), 2022’s Boat Songs, 2021’s Ghost of Your Guitar Solo, and 2019’s MJ Lenderman. The album was recorded at Asheville’s Drop of Sun Studios during any offtime Lenderman had from touring (he’s also a member of the band Wednesday). Co-produced with Alex Farrar, the instrumentation is almost entirely performed by Lenderman. The album will be his fourth full-length album, but his studio debut for ANTI-.
