We’re over the blood moon to announce that we’ll be releasing Lunch Lady’s debut album on August 23rd!
Lunch Lady are a sparky group from Los Angeles redolent of the desert heat, pining hearts and that chorus-soaked cloak of sound held dear by followers of British early 80s post-punk. Numbering four, Lunch Lady consist of Rachel Birke (vocals), Juan Velasquez (guitar), Victor Herrera (bass) and Robert Wolfe (drums). The band began in 2017 when Velasquez asked Birke if she’d like to start a new music project with him, their respective other groups Abe Vigoda and Heller Keller having co-existed in LA’s DIY orbit. Birke explains that they “immediately decided upon making the new band a kind of love letter to Kitsch.” Lunch Lady’s dreamy punk forays into country ballad territory certainly swoop into sentiment, but its the melancholy of artifice that defines their outlook.
The band’s first video, ‘Window’, a track that whirls by with all the flourish of a card trick just premiered on Brooklyn Vegan, take a look!
Lunch Lady’s debut album ‘Angel’ is available to pre-order in our webshop now! Our friends at Danger Collective are releasing a cassette version of Angel too!
