Our first album taught me that youve got to reach as far down into your soul as possible and be willing to show something real and raw to the world, and with this album that felt even easier and more natural, says Leavins, whose signature croon imbues every track on Irreversible with a potent emotionality. Produced by Yves Rothman and Lawrence Rothman (Blondshell, Yves Tumor), Irreversible came to life in the midst of a relentless live schedule thats included performing at leading festivals like Lollapalooza, sharing bills with the likes of Morrissey s the result is a majestic suite of songs that burn bright, hit hard, and passionately celebrate the drama of being alive.
