Jay Som signs to Polyvinyl, releasing debut LP in 2017

Jay Som, who’s currently on tour with Mitski and Japanese Breakfast, recently released a great two-song single on Fat Possum, which followed the Turn Into cassette on Topshelf. Now main member Melina Duterte and the rest of the band have inked a deal with Polyvinyl, which is yet another of the label’s recent exciting signings (Julia Jacklin, Beach Slang, Tancred, etc). Polyvinyl will reissue Turn Into on November 18 in vinyl, cassette and CD formats, and Jay Som’s debut album will follow in 2017. Stream Turn Into in full below.

The Mitski/Japanese Breakfast/Jay Som tour already hit NYC once at Bowery Ballroom, and it returns for a sold-out show at MHOW on July 27. Updated dates are listed below.
