Judah & the Lion Release New Single 'Scream!'  Image

Platinum selling Nashville band Judah & the Lion have released "scream!" - the anthemic lead single from the group's forthcoming full-length studio album Revival - due out June 10th via Cletus the Van Records / Virgin Music.

Once again, Judah & the Lion's Judah Akers showcases his skill at writing relatable songs as he taps into our collective frustrations. You can stream or buy the single HERE and preorder and pre-save HERE.

"Sometimes the best way to deal with the craziness of the world is to scream into a pillow. During the pandemic I was feeling the weight of all that was happening in the world and my counselor told me I needed to get that stress out. He suggested screaming as loud as I could into a pillow. Felt a bit insane, but it did help. When we wrote this song, we wanted to give you permission to do the same," said Judah Akers, Judah & the Lion.

The single comes on the heels of Judah & the Lion's performance this past Sunday, May 1st at Nashville SC's inaugural opener at GEODIS Park where the band played a short set that included the official club anthem "Never Give Up On You" - a song Judah & the Lion wrote for the club and has been a staple ever since.

The release of "scream!" also follows the band's US headline tour announcement - a two-month trek that includes a September 10th headline slot at The National Park's Superbloom Music Festival in Salt Lake City, Utah and is the Nashville band's first tour since before the pandemic. In addition, Judah & the Lion will be returning to Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival on June 18th where they're confirmed to play alongside Tool, Flume, 21 Savage, Tobe Nwigwe, Mt. Joy, 100 Gecs and more.

Revival was recorded at Echo Mountain in Asheville, NC and is Judah & the Lion's fourth full-length studio album. The new LP is due out June 10th via Cletus the Van Records / Virgin Music and is a collection of songs that speaks to the band's journey back to innocence and hope through reclamation. You can preorder and pre-save Revival HERE and stream or buy "scream!" HERE. See below for a complete list of confirmed tour dates and tickets are available now HERE.
