World Famous drag star Alaska Thunderf*ck has announced that her new musical group Alaska & Jeremy will release their debut album Amethyst Journey on August 17 via PEG Records, the LGBT-focused label of Producer Entertainment Group (PEG). Alaska & Jeremy is the collaboration with her long-time musical partner Jeremy (Mikush).
Pre-orders begin Friday, August 10 via http://itunes.apple.com/album/id1420705736?ls=1&app=itunes. All pre-order purchases will receive two instant grat tracks – “Aliens” and “Truth in The Light.”
Amethyst Journey was meticulously crafted and molded with love and patience alongside producer Markaholic. “Jeremy and I have been making music together for over 9 years. After taking a retreat into the woods of the Russian River Valley to write, reflect, and commune with nature and one another, Amethyst Journey was born.
The album is a collection of songs that are a combination of our outlook and inspirations– a response to current issues and the state of our planet. We believe the Queer community is a model for our global extended family, and together we have the power to create positive change for all of humanity.
All of the songs were recorded in downtown Los Angeles with producer Markaholic. We worked together along with Mark to craft and mold each track with love and patience.” said Alaska.
The first single & video, “Aliens” is also set for release on August 17, premiering exclusively on VEVO. “Aliens,” the album’s overture, is a folk music-based lullaby written for the people of Earth that asks the questions: What is the future we want? Does the idea of extraterrestrial visitors come from a Savior complex… or an Armageddon complex?
Amethyst Journey will be available via all digital retailers as well as Alaska & Jeremy’s website: alaskaandjeremy.com
