Sarah Herrera doesn’t ask for your attention — she demands it, often with a scream, a punchline, and an unapologetic guitar riff. As the brain (and mouth) behind The Tommy Lasorda Experience, she’s long made noise with satire-soaked punk that flirts with chaos. But with her latest solo endeavor, she doesn’t just crank up the volume — she breaks the dial.
Her debut solo record — the gloriously self-indulgent “Me Me Me Me More More More Mine Mine Mine” — isn’t just a title, it’s a dare. Herrera is here to reclaim the narrative, hijack your expectations, and throw glitter bombs at everything polite and predictable.
🚨 A Solo Album That Screams “Main Character Energy”
Let’s be clear: this isn’t a side project. This is Sarah Herrera’s full-tilt manifesto. “I’m the alpha female. I write it all. I scream it all. I am it all,” she proclaims with a crooked grin. Sure, Jimmy and Miguel — long-time bandmates from Tommy Lasorda — are still on board, but “they’re basically glorified roadies at this point,” she laughs.
Distributed by Insurrectionary Records NYC, the record hits streaming services soon, but Sarah Herrera warns, “It’s not a vibe — it’s a threat.”
📜 The Birth of Chaos: Enter the “Ungodly Document”
Every great revolution starts with a doctrine — or in this case, a deranged, drug-fueled writing binge. Sarah Herrera penned what she calls The Ungodly Document, a 20-page stream-of-consciousness explosion where every sentence had to include one of six words: stealing, lawyer, taxes, homosexual, politician, or drink and drive.
“It’s like Mad Libs for the criminally insane,” she says, adding that at least three songs lifted lines straight from this masterpiece of mayhem. Tracks like “What’s Yours Is Mine” and “A Collect Call From Nowhere” drip with manic genius, but the album’s crown jewel might just be “I Like To Drink And Drive Because I Want To Be A Giant Pinball Going Down The Road.” Yep. That’s real.
🎬 Films, Narcotics, and Found Poetry
How does one write an album while “redecorating the soul with stimulants?” Simple: combine cinema obsession with stimulant bingeing. For three straight days, Sarah Herrera inhaled coke and benzos while rewatching her ten favorite movies. Any time a line struck her fancy, she paused the screen, dug her notebook from a pile of cans and rolling papers, and scribbled it down.
Later, those lines transformed into songs. The lyrics? A surreal mashup of Tarantino-meets-Waters dialogue set to punk chords and audio mayhem.
🔥 Track Titles You’re Probably Not Ready For
The song list reads like someone live-blogged a fever dream:
-
Lick My Love Pump
-
Mark It Zero
-
How Would You Like One Cross Yo Lip?
-
Shooting The Devil In The Back
-
Welcome To Emerald City
-
You Should Not Drink And Bake
-
I Can Drink And Drive Because It Is My Right To Express Myself (yes, it’s instrumental)
It’s as if The Velvet Underground had a baby with a bootleg Tarantino DVD collection.
🎱 “This Is My Jam!”: How A Jersey Pool Hall Became Punk Lore
The phrase that launched a thousand inside jokes? “This is my jam!” It came from a gritty 9-ball pool tournament in Jersey. “Some guy said it while salsa music played,” Sarah Herrera explains. “I laughed so hard I almost concussed myself on the table.”
Naturally, it became a track. Naturally, it’s one of the catchiest.
🚌 The “Tour” That’s Either Performance Art or Perjury
Their upcoming “tour” feels like a dare issued by Hunter S. Thompson. According to their questionably lucid manager, stops include:
-
A live show outside Sarah’s Bronx apartment
-
A set in the Meadowlands Arena Men’s Room
-
A swingers club in Queens
-
Several gun shops and cemeteries
-
A fictional Clockwork Orange milk bar in Europe
-
A Holocaust museum in Poland (yes, really)
-
And… The Shady Rest Funeral Home in the Bronx
Tickets? Free. Because none of it is happening. “It’s a concept tour,” she explains, deadpan.
💬 Sarah’s World, We’re Just Living in It
Sarah Herrera is the chaos conductor of punk’s most theatrical rebellion. Her work is dark, unhinged, and often brilliant. The new album’s title says it all — this isn’t for you, but you’re lucky to hear it.
Whether she’s penning satirical anthems or booking fictional tours, Sarah Herrera reminds us that art doesn’t have to behave. Sometimes, it just needs to scream back.
