Basically everyone in Mom Jeans also participates in Bart Thompson’s project, Graduating Life. They’re also in Just Friends together and Eric Butler released a project single from Scratcher Art.
In July of 2020 many alt rockers were exposed on social media for sexual misconduct. Around this time, Bart Thompson was accused of bullying a girl and landed Mom Jeans on a list of abusers in the alt rock community. You can find the Reddit thread here. The band, including Bart Thompson and Eric Butler were super defensive about the issue on twitter. After a while, lead singer Eric Butler posted a twitter apology thread saying Bart would back off the band for a while. Contrary to their previous post, Bart is in all of their recent instagram photos. I would like to know if Bart has anything to say about the issue before I listen to their third album.
