Joyce Manor Details New Album ‘I Used To Go To This Bar’ & Confirms 2026 Tour Dates

Joyce Manor will release a new album, I Used To Go To This Bar, on January 30 through Epitaph Records. The Torrance, California-based trio confirmed 2026 North American Tour dates supporting the record which features the single, “Well, Whatever It Was.”

Barry Johnson, Chase Knobbe and Matt Ebert enlisted Epitaph CEO, Brett Gurewitz of Bad Religion, to produced the nine-song effort. The follow-up to their 2022 album 40 oz. to Fresno includes the prior-shared track, “All My Friends Are So Depressed.”

“Working with Brett was amazing,” Johnson said. “When it comes to our musical DNA, he’s one of the architects of everything we grew up on. Having him guide our record helped us make something that we could put next to those classic records that shaped us. I really feel like we were behind the wheel, and I’m really proud of it.”

“Joyce Manor are a quintessential South Bay punk band,” Gurewitz stated. “But unlike their peers they’re writing timeless songs for the American Songbook. If Barry was a novelist, he’d be Ernest Hemingway. To me, they’re among the most important bands of the last two decades.”
