Alt-J frontman Joe Newman has released a new song called "Mr. Alligator" with his solo project, JJerome87.
"The path of a Preacher. The rise of a Predator," Newman says of the track. "'Mr Alligator' is the story of a grifter with a penchant for coercive control, violence and a soulless indifference towards their fellow man."
"Mr. Alligator" will appear on the debut JJerome87 album, The Canyon, which also includes the previously released songs "Brush Me Like a Horse" and "Track and Field." The record was previously released exclusively on Newman's website and will be available wide on June 26.
Newman will play a show at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City on Oct. 3.
Alt-J's most recent album is 2022's The Dream.
