MS MR's Electrifying Album 'How Does It Feel' Out Today

How Does It Feel, the highly anticipated new album from music duo MS MR (Lizzy Plapinger and Max Hershenow), is available today, Friday, July 17. Stream and purchase the electrifying new album now exclusively at iTunes: http://smarturl.it/HDIF.

Featuring 12 brand new ecstatic, high-octane songs, including the shimmering and energetic new single "Criminals," How Does It Feel finds MS MR returning to the visceral, bare-bones intimacy that launched the band just three years ago. Their 2013 debut Secondhand Rapture had been recorded for a few hundred dollars in spare rooms throughout Brooklyn. For How Does It Feel, Lizzy and Max returned to their old stomping grounds in late 2014, specifically the neighborhood of Bushwick, where they rented a small room to hammer out new material. For the first time, the duo teamed up with fellow musicians to co-write new songs-Tove Lo for the album's "Pieces" and MNDR for "Tripolar." MS MR's drummer Zach Nicita also co-wrote and co-produced a handful of new tracks.

To celebrate the album's release, MS MR will make a huge splash in Chicago during Lollapalooza weekend later this month. Starting Wednesday, July 29, the band, in partnership with Airbnb, will perform a private in-home concert for one lucky Airbnb host and 20 guests. That same night, Lizzy and Max will also DJ Vevo's LIFT Live concert at The Vic Theatre; MS MR is currently featured as Vevo's LIFT artist for the month of July. On Thursday, July 30, MS MR is joined by Columbia labelmates Wet for a sold-out Lollapalooza After Show at Lincoln Hall. And on Friday, July 31, the band takes the stage at Lollapalooza.

Tickets are now on sale for MS MR's North American/European fall headline tour, which kicks off September 24 and features supporting acts Circa Waves, Jack Garratt, VÉRITÉ, Crater, Tigertown and more. Throughout the tour, MS MR will be donating a portion of every ticket sold to an inspiring organization, Third Wave Fund, a national fund that supports and strengthens youth-led gender justice activism.
