Asbury Park’s self-proclaimed “bitch rockers” Little Hag are set to release their new album, Now That’s What I Call Little Hag, on August 23 via Bar/None Records. Now, Little Hag is excited to unveil the album’s first single, ‘The Machine,’ along with its accompanying music video which was directed by Kris Khunachak.
On the song, Little Hag’s Avery Mandeville says, “This song is about being done with love and dating, and how a vibrator is more satisfying than any man. I wrote this right after breaking up with my boyfriend and finished it when I met my girlfriend, who inspires the turn at the end where ‘the machine’ isn’t a replacement for a partner, but a welcome addition.”
Little Hag is working through her issues and has a brand new album to prove it. Now That’s What I Call Little Hag showcases the wide-ranging songwriting talents of Avery Mandeville. Collaborating with eight different producers and studios, Mandeville delivers a diverse collection of punk rock bangers, deep disco dives, torch songs, folk ballads, and more.
For Now That’s What I Call Little Hag, Mandeville took time to clear her head after a breakup, traveling to Durham, N.C., to write a song every day for a month before moving to South Philly. The album was recorded with engineer Mark Watter (Alex G, Liz Delise) at Headroom Studios and Erik Kase Romero (The Front Bottoms). Little Hag bites down hard on your brain and doesn’t let go, with infectious live energy, unabashed audacity, and a penchant for the uncomfortable and taboo.
