joan superglue shares special “superglue” single featuring Zack Tabudlo

Acclaimed alt pop duo joan today release a special version of their hit single “superglue” featuring Zach Tabudlo off of their highly acclaimed debut album superglue via Photo Finish Records. “superglue” is one of the most powerful, poignant, and poetic moments on the record. “As new dads, we were like, ‘What if we wrote this about our girls?’,” recalls Alan. “We want them to know we’re superglue for them. We’re the guys you can run to when you’re sad or you want to rejoice because something happy happened at school. If you’re not a parent, it can be about someone you really care about. We’re singing it to our little girls though.” The new version features superstar Filipino singer- songwriter Zach Tabudlo who lends his warm and honeyed vocals to the emotive and impassioned track. joan and Zach Tabudlo have been fans of each other’s music for years and the collaboration began organically online with the result being an intoxicating and cathartic alt pop single full of lush instrumentation and soul-drenched vocals. The new single is a love letter from joan to their dedicated Filipino fanbase and a welcome addition to their musical catalogue.

In addition to the new single, joan has announced an Asian tour complete with shows in Thailand, Japan, the Philippines and Singapore where they are set to perform to over 160,000 at the Singapore Grand Prix. The band are completing their U.S tour, performing to thousands of fans across the states.

The Little Rock, Arkansas based twosome is known for creating expansive pop music from inside their bedrooms in deepest Middle America. Their infectious blend of pop eras, DIY, self-sustaining aesthetic and deep connection with their fanbase has resulted in international success with over 150 million streams and sold out shows across the globe including headlining 15,000+ capacity venues in Asia.

joan (Alan Benjamin Thomas and Steven Rutherford) have spent the past few years building their world, single by single, tour date by tour date; from their debut EP, 2019’s portra, to the much-loved cloudy & its sister EP partly cloudy, to 2021’s hi & bye EPs. Their songs have been streamed over 150 million times, with well over a million listeners a month across streaming platforms. joan have enjoyed U.S. and international tours supporting the likes of Jeremy Zucker, COIN, Bloc Party and The Aces, as well as playing to fans across Asia with headline shows and festivals in the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong – they return to Asia for the biggest shows yet, includes dates at a basketball arena and a theme park.

joan’s infectious blend of pop eras & styles belies their roots in Little Rock, Arkansas, but their sense of warmth and community from those around them at home gives their music a sense of belonging often missing from others’ and that extends to their fanbase, with whom they interact via a successful Patreon page and through free meet & greets at every show. 2023 promises to be the band’s biggest yet, with the release of their debut album and worldwide touring & festivals.
