Nashville, TN – Her Leather Jacket has released their latest EP, The House That Chaos Built, a dynamic, blazing collection blending pop-punk and alt-rock swagger. This EP sets the rock scene ablaze and marks a bold new endeavor for the band, experimenting with powerful musical genres and demonstrating their lyrical growth. The House That Chaos Built is available to stream and download on all digital platforms.
The House That Chaos Built explores themes of self-improvement, love, and personal moments, drawing inspiration from the band’s past while pushing musical boundaries to create an eccentric sound. The hook-heavy melodies and infectious choruses on the record were brought to life by producer Aaron Gillespie of Underoath and The Almost. “Working with Aaron on this EP was outrageous,” the band shares. “He’s versatile, and it comes naturally. He really helped break through our barriers on this one.” The EP features previously released singles “Cloud 9,” a rock love anthem, “Ever Been,” a fan favorite featuring Gillespie on vocals, “Cut Me Up,” an emotionally charged track about feeling inadequate, and “Famous,” an introspective song highlighting the emotional toll of trying to make it in the music industry. Additionally, the EP includes an unreleased track, “Nirvana and Cigarettes.” This nostalgic song captures their cheerful, carefree childhood years. “’Nirvana and Cigarettes’ is such a fun, reminiscent song about the simpler days as kids,” they explain. “Just you and your friends hanging out without a single worry in the world!” The House That Chaos Built was mixed by Matt Huber (Smallpools, Boys Like Girls) and mastered by Grammy-nominated engineer Adam Grover, who has worked with icons like Green Day and Zach Bryan. With talented assistance from these creatives, Her Leather Jacket promises a high-quality listening experience.
Based in East Nashville, Her Leather Jacket is rapidly gaining recognition for its fusion of pop-punk and alt-rock. The band has shared the stage with artists like The Almost, Emery, and Smallpools, has received praise from New Noise Magazine, antiMusic, and Kill The Music, and has garnered over 1.2 million streams on Spotify. Having previously found success in country music, lead singer Manny Blu was inspired to create a band with the music he envisioned since his move to Nashville in 2018. Blu found the perfect match in drummer Wes Snyder. Influenced by iconic bands like Blink-182, The All-American Rejects, and All Time Low, the duo’s debut self-titled EP, released in Fall 2023, embraced the pop-punk genre. Now, in 2024, Her Leather Jacket enters their ‘Fuck You’ Era with a long-awaited chaotic new EP. The band’s mission appears evident: “Make good fucking music and have a good fucking time.”
