Ahead of the release of his new album What Do We Do Now, J Mascis has shared new single “Right Behind You,” the tune featuring keys, drums, and J’s shredding. Mascis has scheduled two solo headline shows for 2024 in Australia, which coincidentally happens during a run with Dinosaur Jr. The dates include Sydney’s Liberty Hall on Tuesday, February 20th, and in Brisbane at The Triffid on Saturday, February 24th. Additional solo dates will be announced soon. What Do We Do Now drops on February 2nd via Sub Pop Records and DSPs.

What Do We Do Now is the fifth solo studio outing from J Mascis. The album was recorded at his studio Bisquiteen in Western Massachusetts, and is J’s first solo album that features full drum and electric leads, although the rhythm parts are still all acoustic. What Do We Do Now features guest musicians, including Western Mass local Ken Mauri of The B-52s on keys and Ontario-based polymath Matthew “Doc” Dunn on steel guitar. The album will be available on February 2nd, 2024 worldwide from Sub Pop.
