"Murder at the 18th St. Garage" Released: September 26, 2023
Jenny from Thebes is the 22nd studio album by indie folk band the Mountain Goats, released on October 27, 2023, through Merge Records. The album serves as a sequel to the band's 2002 release All Hail West Texas,[2] and is structured as a rock opera[1] which tells the story of the character "Jenny" (from the band's previous albums, including All Hail West Texas, along with 2001's Jam Eater Blues and 2012's Transcendental Youth). Lyricist John Darnielle describes the album as being about "the individual and society", and about Jenny's "southwestern ranch style house, the people for whom that house is a place of safety, and the west Texas town that is uncomfortable with its existence."[3]
The album was recorded between January 16–22, 2023 at The Church Studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma and features performances by Darnielle, Alicia Bognanno, Matt Douglas, Peter Hughes, Jon Wurster, Matt Nathanson, and Kathy Valentine. The album was preceded by the lead single "Clean Slate", followed by the singles "Fresh Tattoo" and "Murder at the 18th Street Garage".[1][4]
