MJ Lenderman<\/a> is the subject of a new profile in GQ<\/em><\/a>. And, in the article, written by longtime Pitchfork<\/a> contributor Grayson Haver Currin<\/a>, it\u2019s revealed that the Asheville, North Carolina, indie-rocker will no longer tour with Wednesday<\/a>. He will, however, continue to make recorded music with the band. (Representatives for Wednesday and Lenderman confirmed the new development to Pitchfork.)<\/p>\n Lenderman joined<\/a> Wednesday in 2020 at the behest of lead singer Karly Hartzman, who had launched the band as a solo project in 2017. The two musicians also dated<\/a> for a number of years, but they are no longer<\/a> in a romantic relationship.<\/p>\n Lenderman played his final show<\/a> with Wednesday earlier this year in Japan, he told Currin for GQ<\/em>. The man replacing Lenderman in the live Wednesday lineup is apparently named Jake, but a representative for the group had no further information to share on the new member.<\/p>\n Lenderman released his breakout solo album, Boat Songs<\/em><\/a>, in 2022. The following year, Wednesday shared their biggest record to date, Rat Saw God<\/em><\/a>, and, in 2024, Lenderman continued his solo ascent with Manning Fireworks<\/em><\/a>. He and his band, the Wind, are on tour<\/a> for much of this year.<\/p>\n Head to GQ<\/em> for the full new profile \u201cThe MJ Lenderman Story You Haven\u2019t Heard<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
