On May 31, Dischord will release J. Robbins' first-ever solo LP, Un-becoming. J. has been the guitarist/singer and primary songwriter in several bands since the early ’90s, including Jawbox, Burning Airlines, Channels, and Office of Future Plans. For the bulk of that time, he has also been active as a recording engineer/producer, working with musicians from around the world at his Baltimore-based studio, The Magpie Cage.
Un-Becoming came together in short bursts of activity spread out over the long stretch between 2016 and 2019. On 11 of the LP’s 12 songs, J. is joined by Pete Moffett on drums, Brooks Harlan on bass, and Gordon Withers on cello and guitar.
