Label: Nettwerk

Released 2/13/2026

Closer To Happy marks JOSEPH’s first full-length release since the departure of sister and co-founder Allison Closner, and captures a period of profound upheaval, loss, and transformation — resulting in their boldest and most vulnerable work to date. The album finds Natalie and Meegan co-producing alongside Luke Niccoli (Carly Rae Jepsen, Towa Bird, Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness) and bringing a punchy new intensity to their guitar-heavy and harmony-driven sound.
