Joywave preps a musical 'Cleanse'

Joywave's fourth 
studio album Cleanse will be released on February 11 (pre-save/pre-add/pre-order HERE.) 

It is the follow-up to 2020’s Possession. Cleanse was written and recorded during quarantine in Joywave frontman Daniel Armbruster’s home studio. 

Says Armbruster about the making of Cleanse:

“With our dense touring schedule shelved, I was able to reflect on past travels and appreciate them in a new way. But reminders of our fragile mortality were everywhere, punctuated by the ongoing pandemic and civil unrest. The music began to encompass all of this. It became the words, encouragement, and occasional cautions that I would want to share with you if this was the last time we spoke. And with all this time spent looking inward came the realization that there were still a few chips I was carrying on my shoulder that I needed to let go of."

There are six new songs, one of which “Cyn City 2000,” was just released and four previously released tracks including “Pray For The Reboot,” “The Inversion,” “After Coffee” and the introspective “Every Window is A Mirror.”

"Cyn City 2000” is about being thankful for the things you have instead of focusing on what you don’t. Comparing yourself to others is a recipe for disaster every time. The pandemic allowed me to slow down and take in what we’ve been able to do over the last several years and left me feeling both grateful for the past and excited for the future,” explains the singer. 

Joywave return to the road in February with tour stops include Los Angeles, San Francisco, Brooklyn, N.Y., Washington DC, Denver, Chicago, Philly and Boston and wraps up in their hometown of Rochester, N.Y. on April 8. Tickets go on sale November 4 at 10am local time. For more information, visit joywavemusic.com.
