Julie Byrne is following up her third album, The Greater Wings, quickly with a brand new EP. Julie Byrne With Laugh Cry Laugh will be out on November 17th via Ghostly International.
Byrne’s latest is a collaborative project made with Taryn Blake and Emily Fontana, who collectively call themselves Laugh Cry Laugh. They recorded the songs in winter 2022 in Miller’s apartment, dedicating the new music to New York City nights.
With the announcement, two of the four songs on the EP have been released, including Byrne’s cover of Jackson Browne‘s “These Days,” which she had previously recorded for Light in the Attic. The original, “Velocity! What About the Inertia?” is a languid love song with shoutouts to $1.50 pizza slices and slow dancing.
Byrne’s The Greater Wings was released in July. The album grappled largely with grief, specifically her mourning of collaborator and romantic partner Eric Littmann. He had worked with Byrne on her 2017 album Not Even Happiness.
The singer-songwriter has a string of live shows this fall. After a set at the LA3C Music and Food Festival in November, she’ll head to the UK for a string of shows that will wrap in Belfast later that month.
