Permanent Pleasure was written by Joywave (Daniel Armbruster, Paul Brenner, Joseph Morinelli), produced by Armbruster, and recorded at The Joycave (Rochester, NY) and the University of Rochester’s Gavett Audio Studio.
Since their formation, Rochester-based band Joywave, have released a series of visionary mixtapes, EP’s and 3 critically acclaimed albums: 2015’s HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW?, 2017’S CONTENT (Top 10 Billboard Heatseeker debut) and 2020’s POSSESSION. Career highlights include a #1 hit with Big Data’s RIAA platinum certified single, “Dangerous (Feat. Joywave),” along with a string of multi-format hits, including “Destruction,” “Tongues” and “It’s A Trip!” Joywave has proved just as prolific and popular on the road, with sold-out headline tours, show-stealing sets at high-profile festivals including Lollapalooza, Coachella, Firefly, BottleRock, Riot Fest and the UK’s Reading/Leeds, and touring with The Killers, Bastille, Young the Giant, PVRIS, Foals, Thirty Seconds to Mars, Smashing Pumpkins and more. Their 4th studio album, CLEANSE, was released February 2022 and later that year they released their first live album, Live.
