Plain White T's announce self-titled album

The record will be released on November 17th

The Plain White T’s have announced their new, self-titled album, will be available on November 17th via Fearless Records. In celebration, the band has shared the video for new single “Red Flags.”

In true Plain White T’s fashion, the song pulls the listener in with its charming melodies and relatable storytelling. The track captures the band’s signature deftness with hooks, diary-honest lyrics that tell heartfelt stories, and pop-punk sensibilities.

“I was dating someone and it was going so well but in some instances, I was like, ‘Wait does this girl really care? Is she giving me the signals that this is not working?’ Sometimes you get so lost in love and all the good things you ignore the bad things and that’s what ‘Red Flags’ is,” says frontman Tom Higgenson. “I’m daydreaming about her but there are all these red flags that I am ignoring.”

As for the album, the band took its time and truly tapped into the essence that is the Plain White T’s.

“We were trying to hark back to sounds we’ve used in the past with a freshness,” Higgenson adds. “This one came from a really authentic place of understanding who we are and what we do. I’m more excited than I’ve been in a long time. As musicians, we’re always trying to outdo ourselves or go somewhere we haven’t gone before. Somehow, we figured out how to go to a fresh spot and still sound like Plain White T’s.”
