Oh! by my group P.E. is out now. This is the last one, written and recorded 2021-2023, and mixed & mastered earlier this year at Studio Windows. It has some of my favorite songs we ever did, riding the wave from The Leather Lemon, through the rotating case of the NOPE era, and cresting into the time when “the boys” took the mic. Bill Pearis at Brooklyn Vegan penned a lovely review, writing “the group have decided to call it quits, but not before throwing one hell of a farewell party on their third and final album. It’s sad to see them go, but Oh! is a terrific way to bow out.”

We made a ton of music together since 2018 – three albums, four mixtapes, an EP, some covers and remixes, along with a bunch of stuff no one ever needs to hear… and we played a lot of fun shows too. Endless thanks to Trip & Doug at Wharf Cat Records for being such massive supporters from the very beginning. Oh! is out now (deluxe, limited, and standard edition vinyl + digital) via Wharf Cat Records.

My group P.E. returns for our third & final album Oh! The album was announced with the lead single “Color Coordinator”, featuring Eleanor Friedberger (of the Fiery Furnaces). The track was featured on Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, Treble and more, and it was included it on Brooklyn Vegan’s Favorite Songs of the Week, Sacred Bones’ Now Playing, and Gimme Tinnitus Songs of the Summer playlists. Oh! was recorded in fits and spurts over the past few years (with most of the work done in 2022-2023), features an expanded line-up from our original quintet – along with Eleanor on “Color Coordinator”, Nick Campolo performs on and helped write many of the songs. In addition to co-writing and performing on these songs, I recorded much of it, and mixed & mastered the album earlier this year at Studio Windows. This album feels like a wonderful snapshot of the songs we were writing since The Leather Lemon, a handful of which we performed around the Northeast in 2023. Massive thanks to our longtime label Wharf Cat Records for putting this out into the world! Oh! is out October 3 on limited edition vinyl, with special and deluxe editions available as well.
