Miss Grit has announced a new album, Under My Umbrella, arriving April 24 via Mute. The follow-up to 2023’s Follow the Cyborg is led by the ethereal new single ‘Stranger’, which was co-produced with their their longtime engineer, Aron Kobayashi Ritch of Momma. Check it out and find the LP’s cover art and tracklist below.
Under My Umbrella includes the previously unveiled track ‘Tourist Mind’. It took shape after Margaret Sohn returned from an intense touring schedule, working on it mostly in their Queens apartment. “I tried not to edit too much or force a moment to happen,” they explained. “It feels truer to myself, and more of a representation of what is actually coming out of me.”
Collaborators on the record include Sae Heum Han (mmph), bassist Margaux Bouchegnies (Margaux), singer Eva Liu (Mui Zyu), producer Luciano Rossi (Mui Zyu), drummer Preston Fulks (Momma), and violinist Zachary Mezzo (Catcher). “Usually collaboration is a little bit hard for me – there has to be a deeper connection there,” Sohn said. “But really trusting the people I was working with to put their fingerprint on the music, and them also being close friends, was liberating.”
