Lawbreaker asks "Dear Who?"
Lawbreaker - Dear Who?

Jawbreaker is currently on the road celebrating a milestone anniversary for their Dear You album.

Now, we get a collaborative tribute concept featuring members of Far, Heavy Seas, Middle-Aged Queers, Sarchasm, Lousy Advice, and  Nobody's Baby, reworking the original tracks to show their influence while making them their own.

Two songs premiered earlier this week at BrooklynVegan, one fronted by Jonah Matranga, and another from Middle-Aged Queers: respectively "Basilica" and "Fireperson."

The tribute releases on May 4 via Sell The Heart Records and Lavasocks Records (who also teamed up on a recently tribute to Rancid's ...And Out Come The Wolves).
