The musical group will launch vegan dessert collabs and make in-store appearances in Los Angeles and NYC, starting this weekend.
Alt-pop sensation MisterWives delivers their fervent and highly anticipated fourth studio album, Nosebleeds, to fans worldwide. The New York- and Los Angeles-based band accompanies the release with two focus tracks, "Dagger" and "Sideways," showcasing their evolution and fearless exploration of new sonic territories. In addition to their musical endeavors, MisterWives is collaborating with vegan and vegan-friendly brands for three special in-store events in Los Angeles and NYC, adding an exciting twist to their album promotion.
Collaborations with Donut Friend and Van Leeuwen in Los Angeles
To celebrate the release of Nosebleeds, MisterWives has partnered with two dessert spots in Los Angeles for unique in-store experiences. On July 15, the band collaborates with Donut Friend, a popular donut shop founded by a music producer. Donut Friend will feature a limited-edition "Nosebleeds Donut" at Donut Friend’s Highland Park store throughout the weekend. This delectable treat is a raised bismark with lemon glaze and raspberry jam—a perfect combination of flavors. Fans will have the opportunity to meet and greet the band on Saturday while enjoying these exclusive donuts.
Continuing their vegan-themed collaborations, on July 17, MisterWives teams up with Van Leeuwen, a renowned ice cream brand, for an in-store event at Fingerprints Music in Long Beach. Fans attending the event will be treated to a Van Leeuwen ice cream truck offering custom flavors inspired by the album. The flavors include Dagger Shortcake (Strawberry Shortcake), Nosebleeds Sorbet (Very Berry Sorbet), Out of your Mint (Mint Chip), Churros & Too Choco-late (Churros & Fudge), Flower Moon Matcha (Planet Earth), and Trip Around the Cookies & Cream Caramel Sun (Cookies & Cream Caramel Swirl).

Collaboration with Dun-Well Doughnuts in NYC
MisterWives will join forces with Brooklyn's beloved vegan donut shop, Dun-Well Doughnuts, for an exclusive in-store performance at Rough Trade NYC on July 19. This unique event promises to delight fans of both music and delectable treats. To commemorate the occasion, Dun-Well Doughnuts will introduce a special creation called the "Nosebleeds Donut," designed as a playful twist on their popular galaxy donut. This limited-edition treat will be red in honor of Nosebleeds.
“Beyond thrilled to be partnering with some of our favorite vegan treats to help celebrate the release of Nosebleeds! We wanted these shows to be extra special for the fans and couldn’t think of anyone better than Donut Friend, Van Leeuwen, and Dun-Well Doughnuts to make these shows extra sweet for everyone,” shared vegan lead singer Mandy Lee.
MisterWives' Bold New Album: Nosebleeds
Nosebleeds, the highly anticipated fourth studio album by MisterWives, propels the group into uncharted territory, showcasing their bravery, confidence, and strength. Throughout their decade-long career, the band has experienced both incredible highs and devastating lows, and this latest project encapsulates their growth and transformation. The album features ten compelling tracks that delve deep into life's highs and lows, redefining the notions of success and failure.
Lee describes Nosebleeds as a journey of reclaiming the full emotional experience without censoring the truth of feeling beaten down while striving for personal growth. The album embraces the messy middle and represents a liberating unlearning of seeking silver linings. With its fresh sound, vulnerability, and empowering themes, Nosebleeds marks a homecoming for MisterWives—a return to truth, freedom of self-expression, and their most raw, dynamic, and empowering music yet.
