Melbourne Garage Rock trio The Grogans have released their new album Stagger today via CW Records x Community Music, along with the official live video for focus track, “Have A Little Dream”.

Stagger is a collection of tracks that “traverse everything from mental health and self-care to love, live on the road and the beauty and chaos of touring.”

The band explains:

It came from this idea that it was a jagged and stylistically different album track to track.

The Grogan’s Quin Grunden says about mixing and engineering the album on the road across the US & Canada through June-July 2024:

Usually I’m in the same spot whilst mixing and can come and go from each track mentally, but this time the album was attached to us at the hip. We would bring a set up through most of America and record/mix in green rooms and on the bandwagon. It was definitely worth it as we had to work with what we had to finish the album. Only being able to reference mixes on headphones and jbl speakers towards the end of the album process was definitely harder than in a studio, but as a band we have never really been able to sit still so it worked nicely. Each mix definitely has its own personality and I guess that’s what we wanted for this staggered album.

The Grogans will make two U.S. stops this June, headlining The Moroccan Lounge in Los Angeles on June 6 and performing a free, open-air show at Central Park SummerStage in NYC on June 14.
