Japanese Breakfast’s Michelle Zauner and Crying’s Ryan Galloway have teamed up for a surprise new quarantine project called BUMPER. Announced just yesterday, the duo’s first EP, titled pop songs, is out today (September 4). Listen to the project in its entirety below.
Though Zauner and Galloway live just blocks away from each other in New York City, they haven’t seen each other in person since the COVID-19 pandemic began earlier this year. They made pop songs entirely online, sharing tracks back and forth via email.
Zauner released her most recent studio album as Japanese Breakfast, Soft Sounds From Another Planet, in 2017. Crying put out their debut LP, Beyond the Fleeting Gales, a year earlier.
