A six-month labor of love will be revealed to the public on Friday night, Nov. 22, at Songbirds when Monday Night Social releases “Watch It Burn.”
The new, 10-track album was recorded at The Foundry, produced by Brett Nolan.
“It’s not a concept album; it’s songs that all of us have written,” says Janet McGarity, one of the band’s three founding members. “Christian Mann and Brock McGarity (the other members of the founding trio) are the primary lyricists, but the music is very collaborative between all five of us.”
The new album includes Monday Night Social’s popular “Shutting Down Tennessee,” which McGarity names with the title track as her two favorites on the album.
“‘Watch It Burn’ is kind of an angry song. It’s about investing in a relationship that maybe you should have never invested time in the first place; you were wasting time,” she describes.
