Big Joanie have announced their second album.
'Back Home' will arrive on November 4 via Daydream Library Series and feature the newly shared indie-rock track In My Arms, which unfurls over buoyant, driving guitars and potent vocals. It'll be joined on the record by the previously unveiled lead single Happier Still.
Head below to view the heartfelt video, which was filmed in Southend and directed by Lydia Garrett for Girls In Films Productions. Singer and guitarist Stephanie Phillips said:
"At this point I was getting tired of living in London and dreaming about another life. It’s about knowing you should go another way in life but you end up dreaming about the road you’ve already travelled down even though you know it won’t take you where you need to go."
The London-based feminist punk band recorded 'Back Home' at Hermitage Works Studios in North London, with Margo Broom producing. They'll support it with a UK tour early in 2023, tickets for which go on general sale at 10am on July 29.
The trio will also play a one-off show at Third Man London this Friday (July 29), and a gig in Coventry on October 22, ahead of two dates supporting Courtney Barnett.
