Singer Leslie Mendelson has announced a new studio album, dubbed If You Can't Say Anything Nice..., out April 17 via Royal Potato Family.
According to a press release, on this record Mendelson takes a more global approach to songwriting, with feelings of "anxiety stemming from the current sociopolitical climate."
Adds Mendelson, "The anger and depression got to me, and I couldn't hold it in anymore. So, I got into a room with my demons and we just hit record. I deal with depression and anxiety, and I've never really sang about it before. It felt like what was going on with society was affecting me, in terms of gun violence, the opioid crisis, and all the hatred in the news and media. It felt like it was time to speak out."
So fans can get a taste of If You Can't Say Anything Nice... Mendelson has shared the title track of the new project.
