Great Grandpa Announce First New Album in 5 Years

Patince, Moonbeam is out March 28

Great Grandpa announce their highly-anticipated new album, Patience, Moonbeam, out March 28th via Run For Cover Records, and present a rollicking new single, “Junior.” Patience, Moonbeam is Great Grandpa’s first record in five years. The band has been on a clear trajectory of both refining and re-defining their sonic identity, from the sparkling pop-grunge of their first record Plastic Cough (2017), to the sprawling indie rock of critically acclaimed Four of Arrows (2019). Patience, Moonbeam delivers on that promise, taking the band’s DNA and elevating it. It’s prismatic and deeply moving — the sound of lifelong friends and collaborators growing up and growing together.

With Patience, Moonbeam, Great Grandpa has crafted a triumphant document of what happens when your collaborators become your chosen family. When you make the decision to return to each other even after the winds of change have taken you apart. When you find that growing up and out in different directions only brings you closer together. “We’re all like individual swinging pendulums,” says Dylan, “and every now and then we come into sync for a few rotations. Sometimes it’s two of us, sometimes three of us, often it’s not any of us. But when it does come together, it’s really beautiful.” The result is Great Grandpa’s most ambitious and confident-sounding album yet.
