US visionaries Joywave have announced their upcoming third album, Possession, which will be released on March 13th and can be pre-saved on Spotify HERE.
The album was recorded and produced at the band's studio in Rochester, NY, by frontman Daniel Armbruster and mixed by Dan Grech-Marguerat (The Killers, Liam Gallagher, Lana Del Rey) and will include and their new single, 'Half Your Age'. It's the latest in a series of new music released by the band over the past 6 months, including 'Blank Slate', 'Obsession' and the Guardian's Hottest Track of the Week 'Like A Kennedy'. All tracks were accompanied by equally imaginative videos, ranging from the emotionally charged 'Like A Kennedy' to the wildly creative montage of fictitious movie title cards for 'Obsession' and the visually playful Claymation video for 'Blank Slate', all streaming now via the band's official YouTube channel. The album title is a reference to control and the loss of it. The 12-song collection speaks to the noise surrounding us. "Our heads are spinning. Every day is crazier than the last. Every screen we walk by is shouting at us, demanding our undivided attention. Control over our own lives is constantly under siege", notes Armbruster.1 Like A Kennedy

At the end of 2019 Joywave returned to the UK for their first headline show in several years, playing to a sold out crowd at London's The Lexington as part of their series of intimate live performances aptly titled "The Possession Sessions". They also joined Bastille on a major North American run, adding to their already impressive live resumé, and are now excited to reveal that they will be supporting PVRIS on their UK and European tour this February.
