Juno from Remi Wolf is coming this October
Remi Wolf will cement her status as one of pop music’s brightest young stars when her debut album Juno lands on October 15th. To celebrate the announcement, Wolf has unveiled two new standout efforts “Quiet On Set” & “Grumpy Old Man,” the second and third new songs off the forthcoming album. Both tracks are accompanied by visualizers that showcase Remi’s eye for effervescent visual aesthetics.
The two songs are a window into the kaleidoscope of styles Wolf demonstrates on Juno. Born from a jam session, “Quiet On Set” is described by Wolf as “full on psycho,” adding “as much as the song is silly and fun, it really does reflect my life and feelings at the time...overworked, manic, reckless, and childish.” “Grumpy Old Man” is a strutting bop that was inspired, in Wolf’s words, by “some of the most benign things [that] can make me irritated and defensive, which makes me feel old, fragile, and careless.” Though equally distinct, both offerings share Wolf’s cathartic ability to create light from the darkest corners.
Wolf on the creation of Juno:
“Creating my debut album ‘Juno' was like a fever dream. So many changes were happening in my life while I was creating these songs and I think my album really reflects the feelings of tension and release that these changes provoked in me. Every song on this record is a vivid snapshot into what was going on in my life and mindset the day I wrote each one. I hope my Remjobs can hear my honesty and passion come through and, if not, I just hope they think each song is a banger! The album is named ‘Juno' after my beautiful dog I adopted during lockdown. He ended up being in every single writing session for this album and I consider him my partner, witness, and support in the making of this record.”
With her eclectic sound and style and magnetic personality, Remi has developed an avid fan base - to which she affectionately refers to as “Remjobs” - that has made her a trailblazer of the emerging Gen Z pop scene. She has garnered a cult following of peers and fellow artists along the way, boasting collaborations with Dominic Fike, Beck, and Nile Rodgers and Instagram cosigns from John Mayer, Khalid and Camila Cabello.
Buzzing within indie and psych-pop circles, Wolf has continued to break through to the mainstream. Remi Wolf is featured on New Music Daily on Apple Music, and over the last year has earned placements in Apple’sglobal ad campaign for the iPhone 12, Snapchat's international commercial for its new Sound feature as well as Samsung's Galaxy Buds earphone. This year she is making rounds across the festival circuit (Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, and Austin City Limits) and made a memorable network TV appearance performing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. With all of these accomplishments before her debut album, Juno will solidify what already seems written in stone; Remi Wolf is a star.
