Chris Pratt’s Band Mouse Rat From ‘Parks and Recreation’ Is Releasing a Real Album

The Wrap

Published

If the only thing better than “Candle In The Wind” is “5,000 Candles In The Wind,” then the only thing better than Mouse Rat being a fake band on “Parks and Recreation” is Mouse Rat being a real band, fronted by Chris Pratt in real life. It’s happening, and their first album is coming.

Mouse Rat — who, according to their official Instagram page, is managed by April Ludgate-Dwyer — will spread their wings and fly on “The Awesome Album,” which is set to drop on August 27. We have Tom Haverford’s (Aziz Ansari) Entertainment 720 to thank for this album, as they’ve partnered up with Dualtone Music Group to make the album happen.

Naturally, the announcement of “The Awesome Album” came from the one and only Perd Hapley, on the 10th anniversary of the death of one of the show’s most famous characters: L’il Sebastian. And, like any good debut LP, fans will be able to own it digitally, on a limited-edition multi-colored vinyl, CD or even on cassette.
