Guided by their unbreakable friendship and three-part harmonies, LA folk-pop band Trousdale today release Out Of My Mind Deluxe. Vastly expanding their debut offering, the deluxe includes live renditions of their tracks recorded at LA’s legendary El Rey Theatre, features from Ben Abraham and BAILEN, and covers of Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain” and One Direction’s “Night Changes” recorded for Sirius XMStream.

The trio, built up by Quinn D’Andrea, Georgia Greene, and Lauren Jones, shaped the tracks from the original version of Out of My Mind over the course of two years, spread between sessions in Nashville, sessions at singer-songwriter Jon Bellion’s house in Long Island, and time bouncing between the three members’ homes. Making sure they maintained their hand in the recording and production process, the group opted for home studios, returning to the comfort and intimacy of the process that they’d honed at school in California. 

“The real Trousdale sound got its legs when the three of us became heavily involved in the production of our music,” shares Lauren Jones. “The expectations and standards for women are always higher than those of men, and the world of music production is no different. Young girls that show an aptitude for music are more often pushed to be performers than men, which is another reason why there are way more women artists that also produce than there are women producers. Male collaborators get more credit than they’re worth, and then they get hired and rehired to do more projects that gain them more credibility in the field and more money.” 

Quinn D’Andrea adds that their opportunity to connect with young women is a particular point of pride. “More than anything I love going on the road and seeing young women connecting to the power of music and telling your story on your own terms,” she says. “Our friendship and acceptance of each other holds us together, and I think that brings our fans together as well.” A wheel that keeps on turning, the music fuels the friendship, and the friendship fuels the music. Since formation, Trousdale has amassed over 75 million streams worldwide. 

Today’s album arrives with a live video of Trousdale’s cover of “The Chain.” A few weeks back, the trio also released a video for fan-favorite “Point Your Finger,” where they can be seen raising hell in a billiards bar.

Coming to a close at the end of June, Trousdale tied a bow on the Still Out Of My Mind Tour. Along with their headline dates, the band supported The Teskey Brothers, made monumental debuts at Bonnaroo and Green River Festival, and joined the star-studded Dashboard Confessional Emo Superjam lineup while at Bonnaroo. Most recently, the band announced that they will be playing the Hudson Yards Summer Concert Series in NYC before heading out on tour in support of Glen Hansard. See all dates here and below.

ABOUT TROUSDALE

Mathematicians argue that the triangle is the strongest shape—a claim easily backed by the magical, unbreakable three-part harmonies of Trousdale. Named for the pedestrian roadway running through the University of Southern California where they met, the trio of Quinn D’Andrea, Georgia Greene, and Lauren Jones became fast friends while holding each other up through an intensive music program. After reaching TikTok virality and playing to sold-out crowds, their mutual support and mystic harmonies have resulted in 2023’s Out of My Mind, with a deluxe version of the country-tinged indie pop triumph out now.

The trio’s first time harmonizing proved their immense potential. Greene and Jones had been paired together for a songwriting class, and began crafting what would become Trousdale gem “Do Re Mi”. Like two sides of a triangle craving their fortifying third, they recruited D’Andrea to help finish the song. “We knew we had something special, and we just kept following that feeling,” Jones says. Greene agrees, noting that their focus has always involved subverting the industry’s tendency to pit women against each other. “All three of us went to school to do our own solo artist projects, but instead we chose each other,” she says. 

The band members credit their respective families’ love of music as another important factor. D’Andrea is trained in classical piano and was obsessed with musical theater and a cappella. Jones, meanwhile, admired her dad’s acoustic guitar take on Beatles tunes and started doing the same with Taylor Swift’s hits. Greene’s house was similarly steeped in music. When the trio began singing together, however, the result was greater than their composite parts. “We were so impressed with each other even back in school, and now I feel like we get to make music with our favorite artists every day,” Jones says. 

While Trousdale honed their musical alchemy, the group stretched far and wide in their inspirations. Their earliest singles and YouTube videos included covers ranging from Abba to Katy Perry, and the golden sun pop harmonies of the Eagles and Beach Boys have remained a massive influence. Out of My Mind highlight “Bad Blood” exemplifies that heady fusion, a jolt of twangy heartbreak delivered in sugary pop goodness. The immaculately groovy “Point Your Finger” meanwhile demonstrates their instrumental depth, the low-slung swagger incorporating clanking glass and smoky electric guitar into a muscly warning.

The trio shaped the tracks from Out of My Mind over the course of two years, spread between sessions in Nashville, sessions at singer-songwriter Jon Bellion’s house in Long Island, and time bouncing between the three members’ homes. When it came time to record, the group opted for home studios, returning to the comfort and intimacy of the process that they’d honed at school. “The real Trousdale sound got its legs when the three of us became heavily involved in the production of our music,” Jones says. 

No matter the tone or theme of their music, it’s clear there’s a special relationship at the center of every harmony and immaculately composed track: “Our friendship and acceptance of each other holds us together, and I think that brings our fans together as well,” D’Andrea says. In that way, harmony truly sits at the core of Trousdale, with everything returning to that triangulated strength. The music fuels the friendship, and the friendship fuels the music. And on the back of that harmonious present, Trousdale continue to build toward an even more majestic country pop future.
