jasmine.4.t Announces Debut Album Produced by boygenius, Shares New Single

jasmine.4.t, the moniker of Manchester singer-songwriter Jasmine Cruickshank, has announced her debut full-length, You Are the Morning. Out January 17 via Saddest Factory Records, the record was produced entirely by Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus at Los Angeles’ Sound City Studios. The members of boygenius also contributed backing vocals, as did the Trans Chorus of Los Angeles. The album includes the previously released single ‘Skin on Skin’, as well as a new track out today called ‘Elephant’. Check it out below and scroll down for the album’s cover art and tracklist.

“I wrote ‘Elephant’ very early in my transition about my first t4t love,” Cruickshank explained in a statement. “It’s about when it hurts because you’re trying to be friends but you both want to be more. My life in Bristol fell apart when I came out and, having no safe place to live, I was staying on queers’ sofas in Manchester, traumatized and in no place to start a relationship. It was beyond healing recording this track in LA with Phoebe, Lucy and Julien, along with my Manchester dolls Eden and Phoenix and with extra layers from local trans musicians Vixen, Bobby, Addy and of course the incredible Trans Chorus of Los Angeles.”
