Laura Jane Grace in the Trauma Tropes—the songwriter’s newly minted band with vocalist Paris Campbell Grace, bassist Jacopo “Jack” Fokas, and drummer Orestis Lagadinos— have shared the new single “Wearing Black,” which will be featured on their forthcoming album Adventure Club. On the hard-charging punk-pop cut, Grace sings: “Wearing black to the punk parade / ACAB but the gays are OK!” The singer tosses in some cultural criticism, too, cooking up a heater of a bar with: “Jojo Siwa is playing at two / She’s got that karma and some Tito’s, too.”
Additionally, Grace will be touring throughout 2025 across North America and Latin America with Murder by Death, Rodeo Boys, Trapper Schoepp, and Team Nonexistent in select markets. Check out the full list of tour dates here, and pre-order Adventure Club here ahead of its July 18 release.
