Horsegirl announce details of debut album, Versions of Modern Performance
Chicago trio Horsegirl have announced the details of their upcoming debut album, Versions of Modern Performance. The album is due out June 3 via Matador, and the first new song they’ve shared is titled “Anti-glory.” Check it out below, along with the album’s tracklist, artwork and their upcoming tour dates.

The song fell into place immediately, and looking back, we have no idea how we wrote it,” the band says in a press release. “As always, this song and album are for Chicago, our friends, our friend’s bands, everyone who can play the guitar, and everyone who can’t play the guitar.”
