Los Angeles-based band Angelsaur are committed to honest sentiments with their raw and expressive approach to making music. Singer/bassist Logan McQuade and guitarist Jonah Feingold met while attending Thornton School of Music at USC and worked/toured with notable artists such as King Princess, Del Water Gap, Fiji Blue, Mark Ronson, Omar Apollo and more.
Following their debut record Children Disguised As Adults in 2023, the band returns with their introspective sophomore album, The Girls Are Stressed – co-produced and mixed with trusted engineer Andy Baldwin (Bjork) – they explore the struggles of aging, validation, sobriety and how to reclaim self-worth as time progresses. Recorded between different studios and homes in Los Angeles and Indio, CA, the album started as a collection of songs that came together after a long touring break with King Princess in 2024 and the ending of a seven-year relationship for McQuade. “The album dives into my search for self-worth and confidence,” McQuade says of the songs lyrically. “A lot of the songs are me reckoning with the slow unraveling of something that had shaped so much of my identity.”
Angelsaur’s lush arrangement of crispy, grunge, experimental and alt instrumentation was built to feel like a live show, drawing inspiration from their extensive experience on tour, complementing the vulnerable lyricism of discovering happiness, letting go and moving forward. “The album feels like a chaotic feast,” the band says of the record. “We wanted to evolve everything—our production, songwriting, and sound—while still making something that felt undeniably and uniquely us.”
