Joyce Manor have announced their 6th studio album, 40 oz. To Fresno, slated for release on June 10th, 2022. Alongside the announcement, the band also released “Gotta Let It Go,” the first single from the upcoming release.
Originally planning to take a small break from music, Joyce Manor brought their latest project 40 oz. To Fresno to life thanks to singer/guitarist Barry Johnson’s desire to keep writing during quarantine. Produced by Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith, Tokyo Police Club, Joyce Manor’s ‘Cody’,) mixed by Tony Hoffer (Beck, Phoenix) with Tony Thaxton of Motion City Soundtrack on drums, a sense of liberation lies at the core of this project. It’s strangely fitting that the title was taken from an auto-corrected text message about Sublime. Those types of happy accidents are all over 40 oz. To Fresno and are worth the subsequent sonic hangover.
Vocalist Barry Johnson summarizes, “This album makes me think of our early tours, drinking a 40 in the van on a night drive blasting Guided By Voices and smoking cigarettes the whole way to Fresno.”
