Joyce Manor was conceived in the back of a car in the Disneyland parking lot—the kind of beginning California dreams are really made of. It was the fall of 2008 over a bottle of cheap booze when co-founders Barry Johnson (guitar, vocals) and Chase Knobbe (guitar) decided to team up. They formed a power violence band where everyone would have Johnny Thunders-style glam-names … like “Joyce Manor” named after an apartment complex Barry walked past every day. But when longtime friend Andrew Jackson Jihad suddenly asked Barry if his old band wanted to open for their LA show, he scrambled to say yes.

“I was like, ‘We have a new band!’ ‘What’s it called?’ And the first thing I thought of was … ‘Uh, Joyce Manor!’ We didn’t even have a band. But they put it on the flyer.”

So, Joyce Manor made their debut as an acoustic two-piece, with Chase and Barry quickly learned that they were really a pop-punk band trapped inside a folk-punk duo—too many songs just demanded bass and drums. “Playing loud is just more fun,” explains Barry.

By the end of 2009, they’d made a new friend in new drummer Kurt Walcher and welcomed old friend Matt Ebert back from Portland to play bass. (“He moved back like, ‘Dude, wanna start a band?’” says Barry. “And I said, ‘Wanna be in THIS band?’”) With their line-up settled, they attacked their songs with new enthusiasm and neurotic precision, discovering their own kind of beauty in simplicity and pursuing heartbroken punk perfection.

Their first self-titled album in 2011 exploded out of nowhere and their second in 2012 landed them on the storied Asian Man Records, home of all of Barry’s first favorite bands. Across these two albums, they discovered what Joyce Manor really sounded like—the speed and sense of melody of fellow South Bay band the Descendents, the artfully bittersweet lyricism of Jawbreaker and the undeniable heart-on-sleeve honesty of the first two Weezer albums. By the close of 2013, they had the experience, the discipline and the inspiration to make one of those rare albums that redefines a young band—Never Hungover Again, on Epitaph Records.

Some of these songs, they’d been working on for years, says Barry. Joyce Manor never demos. They just mercilessly rehearse, chopping and editing and reworking songs until there’s nothing left that lags. (“I just know when it’s right,” says Barry) Guitarist Chase had graduated to a co-writing position with Barry, pouring new ideas and techniques into the songs, and while their first two albums were learn-as-you-go experiences, they started Never Hungover Again with a vision, a budget and two whole weeks to make exactly what they wanted. (That’s a long time in Joyce Manor world.) Friend and Philly producer Joe Reinhardt took the controls in Hollywood’s analog dreamland the Lair. They assigned the final mix to Tony Hoffer—the guy who found the definitive sound Supergrass, Belle and Sebastian, M83 and Phoenix.

Together, they made an album of pop-punk in paradox, right down to the title and photo on the cover. It’s something like believing the impossible, says Barry, or at least the too good to be true: “Those people look wasted—yeah, there will definitely be a hangover! There will be pain!’” (Referring to the cover art). It is ten precisely put-together songs about how things fall apart, with some of the saddest lyrics you’d ever shout along to from the front row.

There are broken homes, drunken nights, faltering relationships and the kind of numbness that makes you want to feel anything at all, even if it hurts. Naturally, there are some Morrissey-esque moments in there—like “In the Army Now” about watching friends grow out of music and move on. Or in “End of the Summer,” which somehow puts a Big Star-style intro in front of Moz-ian vocals and a chorus that’s pure blue-album Weezer. “Heart Tattoo” is a pop-punk stormer (think Lifetime or Dillinger Four) about what really happens when you get a tattoo—“What about the regret?” asks Barry. And “Catalina Fight Song” is maybe Hungover’s definitive song, about hanging out on the cliffs that overlook the Pacific—what locals call the end of the world—and thinking “What the fuck am I gonna do?”

If there’s a feeling to Never Hungover Again, says Barry, it’s a feeling he can’t quite pin down—some complex thing that’s part anger and part sadness. It's the loneliness when you’re surrounded by people and that lostness when everything you’ve wanted seems to be right in front of you. And if there’s a single moment that defines Never Hungover Again, it’s the way “The Jerk” ends with feedback and a chord ringing over Barry’s last shout of “It all goes wrong!”—because despite the confusion and sorrow and resignation, it somehow sounds so right.

Wavves And Culture Abuse Collaborate On New Single
Stream "Up And Down"

Culture Abuse Joins Wavves and Joyce Manor
As U.S. Co-headline Tour Continues

Physical 7" Coming Soon!

Today marks the premiere of “Up and Down,” a collaboration between WAVVES and Culture Abuse. "Up and Down" is a two-minute burst of garage pop with bouncy guitar melodies and punchy lyrics. It's available now on all DSP's and YouTube in the form of a lyric video. A physical 7" of the single is coming soon as well, stay tuned for more info.

Listen to “Up and Down” by WAVVES and Culture Abuse

WAVVES’ sixth album You’re Welcome arrived in May of 2017 on Ghost Ramp Records. It was praised by A.V. Club as Wavves’ finest moment to date.” Throughout the album, singer/songwriter Nathan Williams explores his obsessions with everything from doo-wop to Cambodian pop to South American psychedelia.

Hailing from the Bay Area, Culture Abuse signed to Epitaph Records earlier this year. The band released their debut album Peach in late 2016 – a blend of distortion-heavy garage punk, keyboard melodies and the occasional string arrangement. Culture Abuse is currently in the studio working on their sophomore album, to be released by Epitaph in 2018.

WAVVES recently embarked on a co-headlining run with another Epitaph artist, Joyce Manor. It started in New Orleans and Culture Abuse has joined the tour as support.

Culture Abuse dare you to try and categorize them. On their debut full length album "Peach", the San Francisco bay area band drops hints with every song. While they are discovering their own sound and growing as a band, you will be too busy singing along as opposed to trying to label them or fit them into a box.

(New York, NY) Yep Roc recording artist Robyn Hitchcock continues his seemingly endless live schedule with the announcement of a wide-ranging array of upcoming dates.  

ROBYN HITCHCOCK, the legendary British artist's acclaimed 21st studio recording and first-ever eponymous release, is available now at all music retailers and streaming services.

North American solo dates were resumed in September, including a two-night stand at Toronto, ON's The Drake (September 21st and 22nd) and two sets at New York's City Winery, one was an all-request set. Additional U.S. dates will have continued in November, with shows already scheduled through February 2018.

Hitchcock recently toured the States with the Psychedelic Furs, and performed at Happy Valley and Pickathon as well as the 2017 Edinburgh International Festival, where he paid homage to "The Music of The Incredible String Band" in an extraordinary tribute concert curated by Joe Boyd and featuring ISB founding member Mike Heron and bassist Danny Thompson.

For updates and ticket availability, please check out robynhitchcock.com/tour.

Hailed by Uncut as "the psych maverick's loudest, liveliest album in decades," ROBYN HITCHCOCK is also available via at the official Yep Roc Store. The album has drawn some of the most ecstatic press notices of Hitchcock's four-decade career. "Witty, moving and seriously catchy," raved Paste, "ROBYN HITCHCOCK is a glorious return for a man who wasn't really gone in the first place." "Astonishing evidence of a creative force that refuses to tamp down," declared A.V. Club. "Four decades as a musician have only deepened, not lessened, Hitchcock's legendary imagination and witty asides as we all trudge through reality." "The bendy mirror through which (Hitchcock) refracts experience offers a sharper view year upon year," noted Record Collector. "If his impishly sardonic persona implies disengagement from reality, even a cursory glance at his lyrics betrays the preoccupations of an individual familiar with the abyss." "As random as a Frenchman's hat," wrote David Quantick in Classic Rock. "Songs like 'Mad Shelley's Letterbox' and the superb '1970 In Aspic' couldn't be written by anyone else. A worthwhile ball to put in his canon." "These 10 gems slither, rock, roll, glide and shapeshift, coalescing around Hitchcock's typically anxious, strained but striking and immediately identifiable vocals," raved American Songwriter. "Hitchcock not only hasn't lost his edge, but has sharpened his knives on this superb set. Newcomers can start here to get a whiff of one of music's most pungent, eccentric and lovable journeymen doing what he does best, knowing they have plenty more to explore from where this came from." PopMatters agreed: "If you're a Robyn Hitchcock fan, this album is an affirmation of his continued skill and talent. If you're a newbie, buy this album and then buy all the others. It's a wonderfully twisted ride."

The album was heralded earlier this year with the acclaimed first single, "I Want To Tell You About What I Want." The track premiered exclusively via NPR Music where it was hailed as "pungently playful... (Hitchcock) sounds renewed, refreshed and irascibly rambunctious." "Hitchcock isn't one to shy away from a political statement," noted Nashville Scene. "In that spirit...('I Want To Tell You About What I Want') shares a little bit of DNA with (The Soft Boys') 'I Wanna Destroy You.'" "Hitchcock's sense of humor shines through the darkness," declared Stereogum.

Curtains Closed: Experience The Debut Single By @nothinggoodstl #PopRock #PopPunk #Emo

Nothing Good is a one-man pop punk project from St. Louis, MO. featuring Kerry Ritter on vocals, guitar, bass, keyboard, programming, engineering and production. Nothing Good draws inspiration from up-beat pop punk, pop rock, and emo acts of the 90s and 200s (blink-182, Jimmy Eat World, the Get Up Kids) as well as modern pop punk staples (State Champs, The Story So Far, Seaway). 

The musical goal is simple: create fun, up-beat songs that tell stories. While many modern pop-punk acts have carried a focus on melancholy and frustration, Nothing Good focuses on stories of happiness, love, and positive-focused tribulation.

"Curtains Closed" (and an accompanying acoustic versio) was the first single released on October 21, 2017 and will be followed in mid-November with a second single (to be named). The debut album is currently in production stages, but the project is already looking forward to the sophomore release and has started pre-production.

Makena and Brock's origins as a musical duo came about in 2007 while performing at a Children's Miracle Network benefit show. Things just clicked upon their meeting and they instantly became a musical duo and great friends. They began touring in 2009 throughout the U.S. and they got the opportunity to share the stage with James Otto, Uncle Kracker and Sheryl Crow. In the summer of 2014 they began touring withthe Professional Bull Riders providing the official Anthem performances. In addition, they also played after parties in the towns traveled along the tour. They also scored a spot with the NFL when the Rams were still in St. Louis, plus the Texas Nascar 500 Speedway and some minor league sports leagues along the way. 2014 also brought additional opportunities to share the stage with big-name artists like Chris Lane, Granger Smith, Cowboy Troy, Sam Riggs, Dylan Scott, David Fanning and Parmalee. The end of the year brought a tour with Keith Anderson.

However, the biggest break for the duo came in the summer of 2011 while performing for tens of millions of viewers and were chosen as top 12 group finalists on the American version of Simon Cowell's hit show The X-Factor. They were one of the last few remaining country artists on the show and received critical acclaim from some of the most renowned figures in the music industry. They have been featured in major magazine publications and also mainstream media websites.
