Lost at Seventeen is the second studio album by American rock band Emily's Army, released on June 11, 2013, through Rise Records and Adeline Records.[5] The album was produced by drummer Joey Armstrong's father, Billie Joe Armstrong.[6] It is the bands last studio under their former name "Emily's Army" after changing their name to "Swimmers" in late 2014, and later "Swmrs" in late 2015[7][8][9] It is also the last record to feature lead guitarist Travis Neumann and last to feature Max Becker on bass before switching to lead guitar.[10] It is also their last studio album to be released through Adeline Records and Rise Records.

Background

After touring on Warped Tours 2011 and 2012, the band returned to the studio to record their second album in late 2012. The sound of the album changes little from their debut album Don't Be A Dick, but does have a lighter sound. The album had more of a pop punk to pop rock sound, instead of a punk rock sound like the first album.[3] Drummer Joey Armstrong's father, Billie Joe Armstrong, had a huge impact on the album's sound.[11]
