The Linda Lindas have announced a new album named ‘Growing Up’. The band’s first full-length record and follow-up to their 2020 self-titled Epitaph Records.
The band also shared a first listen to the album’s title track with their announcement, as well as a new music video.
The video shows Mila de la Garza, Lucia de la Garza, Eloise Wong, and Bela Salazar, jamming out at home. It was completely shot on iPhone 13 Pro Max and directed by Humberto Leon, the co-founder of the fashion brand Opening Ceremony.
The Los Angeles–based band caught national attention last spring for their performance of their original song “Racist Sexist Boy” at the Los Angeles Public Library. They made their late-night debut last June with “Racist Sexist Boy” and “Claudia Kishi” on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
The new single ‘Growing Up’ is written by vocalist and guitarist De La Garza. The track was written about “people that make you want to stay young forever.”
They’ll be announcing more tour dates soon but are currently set to play live shows opening for The Beths, Jawbreaker, and Best Coast, who they collaborated with for their single, ‘Leading’. The band also recently joined the line-up for the inaugural ‘When We Were Young’ emo festival which takes place in Las Vegas this October.
