Buzzing Trio Trousdale Share Triumphant New Single “Growing Pains”

New album out April 11th

Los Angeles’ heavenly harmonic trio Trousdale have announced their new album Growing Pains is set to arrive on April 11 via Independent Co. Releasing the warmly defiant title track and its music video, Quinn D’Andrea, Georgia Greene, and Lauren Jones introduce a new body of work centered around three strong, independent women facing the threats of loneliness, broken hearts, loss, and more, and converting it into transformative, uplifting music.

Opening on a ripping electric guitar and bolstered by their trademark harmonies, their lead single perfectly encapsulates the feeling of working so hard for what you wanted and skating on the edge of burnout. As transcendent as Trousdale sound when they lean into their gold-hued pop, the group work their country flair into the material more masterfully than ever before. 

The trio’s Lauren Jones shared, “The idea for this song came about pretty naturally by discussing one of our favorite subjects: how exhausted we are. It really is so disorienting at times to have a career that is your passion, but also your work. Your boundaries are constantly being pushed and pulled, and you’re always willing to put in the overtime because you care so much. Over time, this can really start to look like burnout if you’re not careful. ‘Growing Pains’ is about living the dream while acknowledging that the dream can be pretty hard sometimes.”

Trousdale’s upcoming second LP was primarily recorded live in the room and co-produced by the band and John Mark Nelson. With co-writing talent lent to them from Mags Duval, John Mark Nelson, and Lawrence Rothman, the trio used a larger band with this record, further flexing their production muscle and resulting in a larger sound than they’ve ever had before. Across 12 remarkable and relatable tracks, Growing Pains points a finger at the weight of life and offers a light at the end of the tunnel.
