WHY? – “Jonathan’s Hope”

|WHY? - "Jonathan's Hope"

In preparation for October's Mumps, Etc., WHY? put out an EP recently, something that re-established the dormant group's offbeat ways in the ecosystem. Today, they're giving us a taste of the new long-player via the colorful, wobbly "Jonathan's Hope." "When I got better from the mumps," Yoni Wolf starts. "Yes, my swollen nut and neck shrunk."

Mumps, Etc. is out 10/2 on Anticon. Read our recent Progress Report with WHY?'s Yoni Wolf here.
