In 2022, The Gaslight Anthem returned to the stage for the first time in four years. Unlike those shows (which celebrated the ten-year anniversary of their breakthrough LP The ’59 Sound), last year’s tour explored every corner of the band’s discography in festival and headline dates around the world. With the band working on new music for the first time in nearly a decade, these 2023 shows mark a new beginning for The Gaslight Anthem.
Oso Oso is the latest project of Jade Lilitri out of Long Beach, New York. After a couple of early records, the band self-released their first fully realized album The Yunahon Mixtape on Bandcamp in early 2017. Despite this low key release, the album quickly gained traction across the scene, winning over both fans and critics with it’s diverse, recognizable knack for memorable choruses and instantly relatable lyrics. Pitchfork said ” Lilitri is as much of a student of his influences as he is a fan, understanding the exact methods that make the sound of this music hit a certain way at a certain age and linger in the years to come.” In 2018 the band was signed by Triple Crown Records, who have reissued The Yunahon Mixtape.
