Pop group Let’s Eat Grandma have been forced to push back the release of their upcoming new album due to vinyl delays. The Norwich duo formed of Rosa Walton and Jenny Hollingworth originally announced back in November that they’ll be releasing their third studio album, Two Ribbons through Transgressive Records on April 8th.
However, the album has now been delayed even further, until April 29th. The pair posted this statement on Twitter “Really sorry to announce that due to ongoing global vinyl delays we’ve had to move our album release date back to 29th April 2022. We’ve been singing CDs in the meantime.” Despite the somewhat disappointing news the duo also revealed in the post that more “new music” was “coming soon” which you can view below:

Back in January, the band released the latest single off Two Ribbons a synth-heavy track, ‘“Happy New Year”. According to Far Out Magazine Walton said she “wrote “Happy New Year” after a breakdown between us that lasted for a long period of time, to communicate to her (Hollingworth) how important she is to me and how our bond and care for each other goes much deeper than this difficult time, I used the setting of New Year as both an opportunity for reflection, looking back nostalgically through childhood memories that we shared, and to represent the beginning of a fresh chapter for us.”
She then continued “I’d been struggling to come to terms with the fact that our relationship had changed, but as the song and time progresses I come to accept that it couldn’t stay the way it was when we were kids forever and start to view it as a positive thing — because now we have been able to grow into our own individual selves.”
The release will follow on from their second studio album I’m All Ears which was released in June 2018 and won the Album of the Year at the Q Awards. You can view the full tracklisting from the new album below:
