Phoneboy with Heart Attack Man

Phoneboy’s third album, Heartbreak Designer, out in April 2025, is the next chapter for the indie-rock group, blending their signature infectious energy with a more refined, introspective sound. Following the success of Moving Out, the album explores love, loss, and self-discovery, marking a new level of depth in their songwriting and production.

Formed in 2018 by Wyn Barnum, Ricky Dana, and James Fusco, Phoneboy started as three college friends making music in a scene with little space for indie rock. What began as campus shows soon turned into packed venues, millions of streams, and a reputation for high-energy performances. After years of playing alongside the band, longtime friend Jordan Torres officially joined on keys and vocals, bringing a fresh dynamic to their sound.

“This is the most complete record we’ve made,” says the band. “It’s still us at the core, but we pushed ourselves further creatively.” Produced in Brooklyn with Ayad Al Adhamy, Heartbreak Designer builds on the band’s hook-driven style while experimenting with new textures and influences. Lead single “I Look Alive” has already made waves, landing in Sirius XM/Alt Nation’s Top 18 and setting the stage for the full release.

With this record, Phoneboy isn’t just evolving—they’re defining their place in the indie rock landscape. Catch them on tour this year as they bring Heartbreak Designer to life on stage.
