“‘Not Bad for New Jersey’ is my way of celebrating what I do and where I’m from,” Fallon says in a statement. “I wrote that song looking back on my life the way you do after almost ending up in a crash – like, ‘How did I make it through that?’ I really could’ve busted myself open somewhere along the way, but somehow I’m still here, and I’m still in one piece.”
Fallon will be playing a run of solo shows in June. His most recent solo album is 2021’s Night Divine.
The last Gaslight Anthem album is 2023’s History Books, which marked their first record in nine years.
