ARIA Award-winning indie-rock band Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers today release GLORY deluxe, the extended version of their critically acclaimed second album GLORY featuring new songs ‘BATH WATER’ and ‘GO WASTE MY TIME’, and stripped back reworks of four fan favourite tracks - ‘TALKING’, DAYLIGHT’, ‘MINE’ and ‘WONDERFUL’ - showing Teen Jesus as you’ve never heard them before.
Released today with its video, their urgent new single ‘GO WASTE MY TIME’ is wrapped in 90s reverb and, simply put by the band, is “a plead to all the relationship time wasters out there, if you don’t like someone then stop wasting their friggen time! Simple!” – Scarlett.
Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers’ AU & NZ GLORY album tour kicks off in Tarndanya / Adelaide next weekend for an eight date run that will see the band play their biggest venues to date and a string of all-ages shows. They play Aotearoa for the very first time with all-ages shows in Ōtautahi/Christchurch on Thursday May 21, Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland on Friday May 22 and Te Whanganui-a-Tara/Wellington on Saturday May 23. Dunedin’s IVY is opening on all three NZ shows.
Remaining tickets are on sale now from teenjesusandthejeanteasers.net
Produced by 3x GRAMMY Award-winning, London-based Catherine Marks (boygenius’ The Record, Wolf Alice), GLORY is an exploration of confidence, disgust, infatuation and power set against widescreen indie-rock you can strut to, and earmarked Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers embracing a new, messy era. It debuted at #9 on the ARIA Albums and #2 on the ARIA Australian Albums Charts, with lead single ‘BALCONY’ landing at #61 on this year’s Hottest 100, and the album being awarded Feature Album on triple j with further support from BBC Radio 1, The Needle Drop, KEXP, SiriusXM, The Guardian (Headline Act), 10 Magazine Australia, Rolling Stone, ELLE, Cosmopolitan, Sydney Morning Herald, frankie, Ones To Watch and Billboard, plus being named a Spotify’s RADAR artist.
Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers - Anna Ryan (they/she; vocals/guitar), Scarlett McKahey (she/her; guitar/vocals), Jaida Stephenson (she/her; bass) and Neve van Boxsel (she/her; drums) - have gone from strength to strength since the release of their debut EP PRETTY GOOD FOR A GIRL BAND (2022). Their debut album I LOVE YOU(2023) landed at #6 on the ARIA Charts, placed at #52 on the Hottest 100 (‘I Used To Be Fun’), with its deluxe I LOVE YOU TOO following in 2024. They have since raked in a slew of accolades including nominations and wins at the ARIA Awards, J Awards, APRA Awards, Rolling Stone Awards, AIR Awards and Music ACT Awards.
Now based across Ngunnawal/Canberra, and Naarm/Melbourne, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers are just as concerned about issues facing today’s women, non-binary people and young people everywhere as they are with making music that continues to push boundaries and expectations. They are ambassadors for Green Music’s No Music on a Dead Planet, played Rising Tide on Parliament House steps, contributed to the Parliament inquiry into challenges and opportunities within the Australian live music industry and are firm supporters of Michael’s Rule. This is a band never to be pigeonholed, and definitely never underestimated.
Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers return to North America this Oct / Nov, playing headline shows down the East Coast, Warped Tour in Florida, and two very special shows with Jimmy Eat World on their highly anticipated Bleed American 25th Anniversary Tour. These dates follow their return to the UK & Europe this August for their sold-out headline show in London with a second now on sale, Victorious Festival in Portsmouth and Openair Gampel in Switzerland.
