MJ Lenderman - Asheville, NC's effortlessly disarming singer-songwriter and guitarist of the band Wednesday - announces his signing to ANTI- and presents a new single "Rudolph".
"Rudolph" marks Lenderman's first new music following the release of his breakthrough 2022 LP, Boat Songs, which was released to a wealth of praise and deemed one of the year's best records by Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, NPR Music, Paste, and many others. Lenderman comments, "'Rudolph' was the first song I wrote after the release of Boat Songs. I had been sitting on the guitar part for a long time and slowly worked out the song whenever I could in between tours in 2022. I finished the lyrics with my friend one late night after a Wednesday gig in Atlanta."
"Rudolph waking up in the road / Dew dripping off his red nose / Blue and black tire track torn / Through a beautiful doe" repeats the chorus, highlighting Lenderman's juxtaposition of the gentle and the extreme.
