MJ Lenderman — the North Carolina-based singer, songwriter, and musician — has announced his new album, Manning Fireworks, out September 6th via ANTI-.
The lead single, “She’s Leaving You,” is a half-sneering portrait of a middle-aged man cheating his way through a midlife crisis, at least until he gets caught and blasts Clapton in a rented Ferrari en route to Vegas. It also happens to be the perfect shout-along anthem for any kid who’s ever felt shortchanged by their parents. The song’s accompanying video, another instant classic, was directed by Whitmer Thomas and Clay Tatum.
Pre-orders for the album are available here.
