AJ Lambert Live at The Copper Room

AJ Lambert is a daring artist who always takes a thrilling and unexpected turn whether it’s making her solo albums, as front-woman & bassist of beloved post-punk band Bloodslide, or as the director of many of her videos, building a transfixing iconography that is singular. 

In 2019, AJ released her first full length solo LP, Careful You, via Alpha Pup. A unique song interpreter like her grandfather Frank Sinatra and her mother Nancy Sinatra, the album includes unique, poignant re-imaginations of songs by artists including Spoon and TV on the Radio, as well as some of her grandfather’s deep cuts such as “Sleep Warm” and “Ebb Tide”. The record was a critical success in both the UK and the US and she directed 2 videos for the album.

Later that year, she collaborated with Greg Ahee of Protomartyr on Lonely Songs, an EP to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Sinatra Sings for Only the Lonely. She was director for a third time, of the video for “Lush Life.”, which was an outtake from the original Sinatra album that Lambert and Ahee included on the EP. 

AJ is gearing up for her next adventure, her new album ‘Dirt Soda’, which will be released in July 8th, 2022 alongside a European Tour. AJ assembled a band featuring Parker Kindred (Joan As Policewoman) and Rhys Hastings (Yves Tumor) on drums, Dave Harrington (Darkside) on guitar, Kenny Gilmore (Julia Holter) on synths, and herself  on vocals, Taurus pedal, piano and guitar for the record. She wrote most of the album’s tracks but also takes on a pair of 90s indie rock titans with her versions of Pavement rarity “Strings of Nashville'' and Codeine classic “Broken hearted Wine”, and also covers The Casinos’ “Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye”. Adventurous and raw, it is a collection of distorted anthems from a daredevil artist with a voice that can handle any genre.
