Out December 4th Via Fueled By Ramen

TO GO AND GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY?”
Today, grandson announces his official full-length debut, Death of an Optimist, out December 4th through Fueled By Ramen. Following grandson’s debut EP trilogy of Modern Tragedy 1, 2, and 3, which turned Canadian-American singer, songwriter, and musician Jordan Benjamin into a vocal spokesperson on some of today’s most pressing political and social issues, Death of an Optimist continues grandson’s dynamic search for meaningful change with some of his most clear-eyed and assertive songwriting yet.
“It is both an origin story and an obituary navigating hope, anxiety and the state of optimism in 2020,” grandson says about the upcoming record.

grandson’s new single “Dirty,” is out now. The accompanying video, directed by grandson’s frequent collaborator Karl Junquist (“Identity” & “Riptide”) features the “genre-denier” (Alt Press) in an interrogation room and prison-like space battling a dual personality.

The new album includes recent singles “Identity” (“Explosive” - NME) and “Riptide,” co-produced by Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda, as well as, a collection of songs that sonically dance the line between emo guitars and tiktok beats.
