Joan Jett and her band, the Blackhearts, are releasing their first album in seven years with Unvarnished, out October 1 on Blackheart Records.
Jett has said in a statement that the album is the most autobiographical she has ever released with songs about her parent’s deaths and victims of Hurricane Sandy. “It’s a real band album. Everybody was involved.”
Among the guests are Dave Grohl and Laura Jane Grace (Against Me!).
Look for the band to perform the first single, Any Weather, next Thursday (August 8) on Jimmy Kimmel.
