Coming July 14: Lifeguard have announced a new five song EP ‘Dressed In Trenches’ alongside their 2022 ‘Crowd Can Talk’ EP, pressed on vinyl together for the first time this summer as the band embarks on a North American tour with labelmates Horsegirl.

Formed in 2019, Lifeguard is Asher Case (bass, vocals), Isaac Lowenstein (drums, percussion), and Kai Slater (guitar, vocals). The trio is young – they met in junior high – but have already found a place at the forefront of an important emerging music community in their hometown.

They are also prolific. In just three years, the trio have put out a full-length, two EPs, and two 7” singles – on their own and also through the labels Chunklet Industries and Born Yesterday. Each release has been sharper than the last, with the band honing a distinct balance of melody and noise, rhythm and drone.
