Background

"It's been a pretty surreal journey for all of us so far, and I'm stoked to finally be making my role as manager 'official'."

— Drummer and co-manager Kieran Lama, upon announcing the band had signed to his newly formed label.[1]

Following the release of their debut album Sunlight (2020), Spacey Jane signed to drummer and co-manager Kieran Lama's management company Anybody Management on 12 February 2021.[1] On 16 June 2021, the band renewed their global record deal with AWAL, with marketing director Ben Godding stating that the label "firmly believe[d] they are now poised to break through on a global scale".[2]

Writing and recording

On 8 June 2020, in an interview in promotion of Sunlight, frontman Caleb Harper revealed that they were already working on their next album, stating, "We were in the studio in June. We're looking to basically get another record under our belts, and be as ready as possible for touring whenever that happens."[3] He detailed the pandemic's impact on the process, saying, "when we first cancelled everything, I had five weeks of literally nothing and did a lot of writing."[3] On 29 January 2021, following their cover of the Beatles' "Here Comes the Sun" on Triple J's Like a Version segment, Harper revealed in an accompanying interview that their second album was "almost completely" written. He continued, saying: "We've actually recorded a few tracks off it already, and we are about to start recording the rest of it."[4] On 28 March, Harper revealed to Honi Soit that the band were finalising tracking on the album.[5] On 9 August, the band confirmed they had "very recently" finished recording the album, sharing a photo on social media of Harper and Hardman-le Cornu alongside producer Konstantin Kersting outside Empire Studios in Brisbane, Queensland, revealing the latter had partially produced the record.[6]

Composition

On 21 January 2021, Harper revealed that "the lack of touring could influence [the band's] new material".[4] When interviewed for Honi Soit, the band revealed that they would be listening to the albums Stranger in the Alps and Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers, and Graceland by Paul Simon during their forthcoming tour.[5] Harper felt that their future live performances would be "less of a rock show", instead being "the songs for what they are."[3]

Release

On 25 June 2021, alongside the release of "Lots of Nothing", Harper revealed that the band weren't expecting to release the album until at least 2022.[7] In an interview with MTV Australia on 8 October 2021, the band revealed that they intended to release the album in the first half of 2022.[8] On 15 December 2021, Alex Gallagher of NME Australia confirmed that the album would be released the following year.[9] On 7 January 2022, Simon Collins of the West Australian listed the album as one of his most anticipated albums of that year.[10] On 10 February, Harper announced on Triple J's breakfast program Bryce & Ebony that the album was titled Here Comes Everybody and that it would be released on 10 June 2022.[11]
