Luscious Jackson - Reunion (2011-present)

Reunion (2011-present)

In 2006, Luscious Jackson announced plans to reunite to record a new album of songs for children; by September of that year, the band had completed eleven tracks for the album, and was seeking a label to release it; it was untitled, though Cunniff told MTV she wanted to call it It's All Goo.

On the July 8, the official Twitter and Facebook accounts became active and confirmed the band had reunited. Jill Cunniff, Gabrielle Glaser and Kate Schellenbach all returned to the band but Vivian Trimble has not. Working with Pledgemusic as part of a fundraising drive, the band hope to finish their album for children that had first been planned in 2006. They have also revealed they plan to make a new studio album, their first since 1999.

A previously unreleased track from 1999 called "Girlscout" was also made available by the band as a free download.

On February 8, 2012, Rolling Stone magazine posted an article on how the band has reunited. The band quietly reunited in 2011 after more than a decade apart to begin work on their first album of new material since Electric Honey was released in 1999. The band have opted to skip the traditional label route this time around in favor of funding their new project with PledgeMusic, a site that helps bands connect with their audience and offers an interactive pre-sale option with exclusive rewards for fans. Although still in the process of recording new music, a track titled "Are You Ready?," is available via internet stream.
