Hi! The new album Different Talking is officially out now. It’s 17 tracks, and about 38 minutes long.
Lots to say but….most importantly a huge thank you to everyone who helped make this record and bring it to life. Katie Von Schleicher, Alex Bailey, Hugo Stanley. Eli Crews on the mix, Josh Bonati on the master. Contributors to the album art- Phoebe Kline, Molly Schaeffer, Darrell Wilks, the band. Music video directors - Eliza Lu Doyle, Adam Kolodny, Matthew Volz, and everyone who worked on the teams to make the music vids. Cecily Russo, who animated the album art visualizer. Everyone at Sub Pop on too many things to name. Pooneh Ghana on the beautiful press photos. Everyone who has listened and continued to care about this project. Everyone who has been in this band and worked with me. I love you!!!!!
Today we celebrate the album release with a DOUBLE music video for One Of Each and Against The Grain. Directed by the inimitable Matthew Volz, and shot on 35mm film by Fatos Marishta & Eric McLeland, with assistance from Madelyn Strutz. Starring Rudolph James, and the Frankie cosmos band (Greta, Katie, Hugo and Alex). This video was so wild and fun to make, with a perfect crew. We shot the whole thing at night, in Far Rockaway. We love it and hope you do too :)
Tonight, I’ll be celebrating at the All Dogs 10-years of “Kicking Every Day” celebration (with Lexie opening!) at TV Eye in Brooklyn.
This Sunday, Frankie Cosmos will celebrate by playing the album live all the way through for the first (and maybe only) time at Union Pool’s Summer Thunder, with Juan Wauters performing to celebrate his new album too!! The RSVPs are past full, but either way it’s FIRST COME FIRST SERVED so if you want to get in, I recommend coming right at 2pm!
