]]> Singer-songwriter Anna Shoemaker has announced her third studio album Back to Pennsylvania, releasing October 16 via +1 Records. Written after moving back in with her parents in the suburbs of Philadelphia, the record is a refreshingly candid portrait of returning home. As she sat at her hometown bar with her dad and his friends, walked the sidewalks of her childhood, spent time with her friends who seemingly had it all figured out, Anna reckoned with a new phase of life by returning to a previous one. From the fear of regression, to the self-discovery that reveals itself when life slows down, to the moments you can’t help but laugh at while navigating adulthood under your parents’ roof once again – Back to Pennsylvania looks at how an experience that feels like a step back initially can actually be a profound leap forward.

Alongside the album announcement, Anna has debuted the title track ‘Back to Pennsylvania’ today. Written shortly after her move from Brooklyn back into her parents’ home, the song became an emotional catalyst for the rest of the record. What began as a break-up song transformed into something completely different. ‘Back to Pennsylvania’ is a snapshot of the moment Anna began to see a setback as something more promising; a chance to see her flowers truly grow again. “’Back to Pennsylvania’ is a song about growing through pain,” says Anna. “It’s about returning to your roots and reconnecting with yourself when shit hits the fan.” The track marks her third and latest preview of the forthcoming LP, joining the previously released tracks ‘Girl Song’ and ‘Counting’.

]]> Following the release of her highly-acclaimed debut album, Everything is Fine (I’m Only on Fire), earlier this year, Brooklyn-based singer and songwriter Anna Shoemaker makes her return with her new single, ‘I’m Your Guy.’

Anna co-wrote ‘I’m Your Guy’ with her longtime friend turned collaborator Richie Quake. ‘I’m Your Guy’ is an intimate alt-rock ballad about unconditional love. Throughout the song Anna subverts traditional gender roles and pronouns with lyrics like, “baby if you’ll be my man / I’m your guy / I will get you through your lonely night.” Rejecting the notion of conventional romance and hetero relationship norms, the song advocates for the type of love — with both lovers and friends — where we all have each other’s backs, no matter what.

Anna elaborates: “It’s been made clear over and over again that people in power in our country don’t really give a shit about us, so it’s really up to us to protect and be there for each other.”
