Los Angeles-based, all-female punk band The Linda Lindas have announced their forthcoming album ‘Growing Up.’ The highly anticipated release is due out digitally on April 8 and on physical formats on June 3 via Epitaph Records. Fans can pre-order the album here.
In addition, the band shares the title track ‘Growing Up,’ written by vocalist/guitarist Lucia. Alongside the track, they release the music video directed by Humberto Leon, co-founder of fashion brand Opening Ceremony and owner of Los Angeles restaurant CHIFA. The video, completely shot on iPhone 13 Pro Max, features custom clothing from Rodarte & Batsheva, and eyewear from Warby Parker.
“Directing my first video for The Linda Lindas was a dream come true because I love the message and voice the girls have, and I am a true fan,” shared Leon. “I was really inspired by the girl’s love of cats and wanted to take that to the next level and so the video is a conversation about turning points in their lives all being viewed through the gaze of their cats. It creates a narrative of whether the cats want to trade places with the girls or vice-a-versa. This video was extra special because I worked with the girls on designing the outfits with Batsheva, styling the looks with Rodarte and Warby Parker. The entire video was a collaboration between me and the girls. By shooting the video on iPhone 13 Pro Max, it created an intimacy with the video that felt like we were listening in on a day in the life of The Linda Lindas.”
