The singer-songwriter Johanna Warren has announced her new album. Lessons for Mutants is out October 7 (via Wax Nine/Carpark). She’s also announced a U.S. and European tour, which includes sets at Pitchfork Music Festivals London and Paris. Check out the video for “I’d Be Orange,” directed by Warren and Richey Beckett, below.
“The only thing we love more than building up an icon is watching them fall—and yet, as an aspiring icon, even when you know that, there’s still this perverse desire to be one of the chosen ones who gets pinned to the cross and set ablaze,” Warren said of the new song in a statement.
Johanna Warren’s last album was 2020’s Chaotic Good.
