Joyce Manor is planning for a big 2026! In addition to announcing their latest album arrival, I Used To Go To This Bar, dropping on January 30, 2026, via Epitaph Records, the band has unleashed the lead single “Well, Whatever It Was.”
“‘Well, Whatever It Was’ has got to be one of the most Southern California sounding songs ever recorded,” frontman Barry Johnson shares. “I hear Jane’s Addiction in the verses, Beach Boys / Weezer in the chorus, and RHCP in the outro. It was LITERALLY produced by the guy from Bad Religion FFS. Everyone was just firing on all cylinders for this one. Joey Warnoker’s drumming, TLA’s mix, and Lenny Castro’s percussion all just sent it to the end-zone. This song would go insanely hard in a Shrek film.”
The band has also announced their plans for a massive 2026 tour. The tour is slated to kick off in March, running through mid-May. Check out the tour schedule below and purchase tickets here.
