The Emo/Pop Punk trio Hospital Bracelet has released their debut full-length album South Loop Summer. This is the group that began as the solo project of Eric Christopher that we first wrote about back in August of 2019. Since that time, and the release of their debut split EP, they have added Arya Woody and Manae Hammond to turn her acoustic bedroom sounds into a full blown punk assault.
The album’s lead single, "Sober Haha Jk Unless", was released right at the beginning of 2020 and has seen a huge amount of success over the last year. However, the powerful and emotional lyrics seem more relevant today than they did a year ago. When Christopher cries "any closure/any closure/because it’s been a long year" we can’t help but scream along.
