The 9-song album marks a new direction for the octet as they strip away much of the sonic ornamentation they've come to be known for in favor of a more raw, direct sound reflective of Ellis Ludwig-Leone's candid, plainspoken lyrics. The band will kick off their US album release tour at Treefort Music Fest in March.

The radio single arrives with an official video co-directed by bandleader Ellis Ludwig-Leone and Matthew Slotkin, which began from a conversation between the two friends about discomfort regarding AI's role in art. The end result features Ludwig-Leone entering the uncanny valley, where his first official press photo morphs into 37 avatars.

The third song to be pulled from their upcoming fifth studio album Arms (out February 16th via their burgeoning indie label Better Company Records), “My Love is a Loneliness” takes a bird's eye view of heartbreak, finding solace in the cyclical nature of loss and redemption.

Trouble in Mind made its Broadway premiere in 2021, 66 years after it was produced off-Broadway at Greenwich Mews Theatre. Cincinnati Shakespeare Company is known for its unique takes on classic stories and reviving them for a fresh audience, and this play is no exception. Known for its general themes of racism and sexism from a black perspective, the play eerily reflects a modern culture and language despite being written several decades ago. Manipulative tactics are used strategically by the characters, performative allyships are shattered, and false dignity is stripped for raw truth.
