Ahead of her forthcoming LP, Laura Jane Grace has shared one final single, “Birds Talk Too.” The 11-track Hole In My Head arrives everywhere on February 16. Pre-orders are available here.

“Birds Talk Too,” an upbeat, groovy track, offers classic rock vibes that are sure to brighten your day. Singles “Hole In My Head,” “Dysphoria Hoodie,” and “Cuffing Season” arrived ahead of the album release as well. Check out the latest single below.


“10 years ago I started getting tattooed by a Japanese tattoo artist named Gakkin,” Grace explains. “I traveled all around the world getting the work done literally starting with my feet and ending with getting my head tattooed in Amsterdam in July of 2022.”

She continues sharing, “At the end of our session, Gakkin gifted me a hand-painted Gretsch guitar, covered in beautiful, intricate, swirling design. I took the guitar back to my hotel room and immediately wrote ‘Birds Talk Too.’ The lyrical references are all Amsterdam: Schipol is the airport, Rookies is my favorite cannabis cafe and Champagne Haze is my favorite strain.”
