“I’ve been a longtime fan of Bloodshot and the artists they work with,” Laura Jane Grace says of the partnership. “Having spent the past year working on a record without knowing where its home was going to be, when I discovered that the Bloodshot offices were only a couple of blocks away from my apartment I went in and asked if they’d consider giving the songs a home. They were cool enough to hear me out and oblige. I couldn’t be more happy about the work we’re going to do together and sharing it with the world.”
Laura Jane Grace & The Devouring Mothers are made up of Grace, lead singer and guitarist of Against Me!, Atom Willard, drummer from Against Me!, and AM! sound engineer Marc Jacob Hudson. Willard is also known for playing with bands such as Social Distortion and the Offspring.
Grace teased the album and announced the tour via Twitter on Tuesday.
