Lost Americana is set for release on August 8 and serves as the follow-up to his 2022 album Mainstream Sellout. The album's lead single, "Cliché," dropped earlier this summer. Fans can pre-order Lost Americana ahead of its global release.

In celebration of the album's release, MGK will host a three-day event in Cleveland, Ohio, from August 8-10, marking MGK Day. The event will feature a mix of music, art, community engagement, and philanthropy to honor the artist's local influence.

The Cleveland-native also made headlines with an acoustic version of "Cliché," dubbed the "sad version." Known for his genre-defying style, MGK has seen major success with past projects like Tickets to My Downfall, which topped the Billboard 200 in 2020, and his Grammy-nominated album Mainstream Sellout. Both albums solidified his place as a prominent figure in the rock and pop-punk scenes.
