Trousdale Marks One Year of ‘Growing Pains’ with Expansive Deluxe Edition Featuring Rachael Price, Tors, Ken Yates & More
A year is a long time in indie-folk years — just ask Trousdale. The Los Angeles trio of Quinn D’Andrea, Georgia Greene, and Lauren Jones has spent the past twelve months turning their sophomore album Growing Pains into a passport, hopping from The Kelly Clarkson Show to the TODAY Show stage, making their Grand Ole Opry debut, and selling out headline rooms across North America, Europe, and Australia. Today, they’re celebrating that whirlwind the only way a harmony-obsessed band knows how: by giving the record a deluxe edition stacked with friends.
Growing Pains Deluxe, out now, expands the original twelve-track LP into a twenty-song love letter to the album’s first chapter. Alongside two brand-new originals — including the lovelorn standout “Where Did You Go” — the deluxe edition features reimagined versions of fan favorites with some of the most distinctive voices in the genre. Rachael Price of Lake Street Dive joins “Save Me,” Ken Yates lends his pen-sharp delivery to “Secondhand Smoke,” HAFFWAY teams up on “Death Grip,” and UK folk-pop trio Tors slide into “Want Me Back” like they’ve been there all along. Rounding it all out is a soaring cover of Neil Young’s “Old Man” that puts Trousdale’s signature three-part harmonies right where they belong: front and center.
“It’s been a crazy year since releasing Growing Pains and we’re so proud of what we’ve accomplished since then,” the band shared. “This album has taken us all over the world, and we’ve been so lucky to get to connect with so many of you through these songs. We wanted to get a few of our friends to hop on some of our favorite songs and finally share two new songs with you guys.”
That community-minded spirit is baked into Trousdale’s DNA, and it shows in the way Growing Pains Deluxe leans even harder into the gold-hued pop and country-rock edges that made the original such a sleeper hit. Co-produced with John Mark Nelson — a behind-the-scenes force who has worked with Suki Waterhouse, Shaboozey, Taylor Swift, and Mitski — the original record was largely tracked live in the room, and the deluxe additions carry the same warm, in-the-moment energy.

Growing Pains was always an album about transformation — about three strong, independent women converting loneliness, heartbreak, and loss into something that lifts a room. The deluxe edition doesn’t reinvent that mission so much as throw a bigger party around it. Press play, grab a ticket, and let Trousdale remind you that, as D’Andrea puts it, “even in the coldest moments, renewal is always possible.”
