Lesibu Grand (pronounced Le-SEE-boo), has announced their hotly anticipated debut album Triggered due out August 16 via Kill Rock Stars. Using modern sounds of celestial pop, punk, and surf rock, each song of the new collection is a poignant reflection of the myriad challenges and triumphs that shape our lives. New wave punk lead single “Anarchy,” arriving alongside a vibrant Jetsons-themed official video, serves as a going-against-the-grain anthem strapped with socio-political commentary on workers’ rights rebellion.
