Today, New York City/Los Angeles-based alt-pop group MisterWives finally share Nosebleeds: Encore, the highly anticipated deluxe version of their 2023 album, Nosebleeds, out everywhere now. Alongside the full project, the band shares the cathartic, empowering female rage anthem and official video "Vultures" featuring PVRIS out everywhere now. The 17 track album is complete with an astonishing list of all-female collaborators and reworked tracks, including appearances by Betty Who, Pom Pom Squad, Meet Me @ The Altar, Against The Current and more, and a remix by The Aces. See the staggering list of guests below.
This fall, MisterWives will embark on the MisterWives: Just For One Night! tour with support from Joan, Juliana Madrid, Moody Joody and Meg Smith beginning with the band taking the Austin City Limits stage on October 6 and October 13. Tickets are on sale now here with a full list of dates below.
The new album puts the original version of Nosebleeds in a brand new light, with several assists from good friends, rising stars and certified heavy hitters that amplify both the music and the artists themselves. Lee says, "'Nosebleeds:Encore' was not only another chance to celebrate our favorite record but a chance to celebrate some of our favorite voices in music. This album was all about setting free suppressed feelings unapologetically so it only felt fitting to create an environment filled with all the incredible women who continuously inspire me to do so."
Complete with longtime friends and musical heroes, MisterWives is thrilled to present a project that feels true to themselves as they dynamically expand their sound. Lee continues,"It has been the biggest honor putting this project together and having so many artists I look up to lend their magic to these songs, making them better than ever has been the biggest dream come true."
The powerful "Vultures" featuring PVRIS channels the spirit of Nosebleeds–high energy, unapologetic feminine rage. The cathartic collaboration sees two friends put their strong female bond on full display. When writing, lead singer Mandy Lee says, "I knew we needed someone with as much teeth as the music and there was no one better to do the job than the iconic Lynn Gunn–who didn’t just bring the energy but took the song to a whole new level!"
Gushing over Gunn's artistry, Lee continues, "Her talent is genuinely one of a kind and having been a fan of her killer voice, songwriting, production, creative vision and love for cats for years finally getting to create together was such a privilege! Bonding over our experiences as women in this industry and getting to channel that divine feminine rage into 'Vultures' was as cathartic and empowering as it gets."
FLOOD Magazine, who debuted the video, says, "The track’s music video invokes a heated therapy session, with both vocalists performing in front of a white void populated with nothing but a pair of chairs and a Newton’s cradle," adding that the song itself "One of the most exciting items on the track list" and "equal parts catching and seething indictment of the music industry’s misogyny."
On the video, director Matty Vogel says, "The video for Vultures centers on the crux of the song, being “stuck inside of a game” where we encounter Mandy, Lynn and the audience all lulled or hypnotized into normalcy, falling in line, and becoming part of a system. We shot most of this video in an endless white cyc with clinical overhead lighting and combined it with rotating and moving shots to make you lose your bearings and feel ungrounded. The beat of the Newton’s cradle suspends reality from the first shot, and the viewer is invited to be entranced into an environment where the ground’s not always beneath your feet!"

PAPER Magazine premiered the band's VEVO live performance of booming single "Organized Chaos" and praised the video's "art of bringing repressed feelings to the surface." With the self-aware track, Lee has recognized these cyclical bad habits and this is the final straw. Lee shares that the track allows her to regain control over her feelings and says to PAPER, "'Organized Chaos' was the reckoning of unhealthy patterns that are comfortable, not because it’s what’s right but because it’s so familiar. This song meets you in the middle of untangling the knowledge you have to break out of a dysfunctional loop while still being stuck in it because there’s just enough order to get by. Alchemizing those feelings into a track that is punchy and fearless both sonically and lyrically gives a lot of autonomy over putting those feelings into action."
The upcoming tour will kick off with an appearance at Austin City Limits in October, and make its way through Texas, California and up the West Coast to Portland and Seattle. The group will stop in Denver before making their way to the Midwest and later, through the East Coast, stopping in Brooklyn for Halloween and ending in St. Petersburg, FL in November.

Moody Joody is thrilled to be a part of the project and join the group on tour, saying, "We feel so honored to have been asked to be a part of this project alongside all of the badass women they are featuring, and it’s got us even more excited to hit the road with MisterWives this fall. Since it’s just our second tour ever as a band, we’ll be playing a bunch of cities for the first time and are so stoked we get to do so opening for a band like them. Their shows are such high energy and we can’t wait to get to watch their set every night!”
