Your New Favorite Band: Chelan

With a mix of ambient sounds and haunting vocals that will leave you intgrigued and in a daze, Los Angeles duo Chelan is the project of Jennifer Grady and Justin Hosford. Having worked together for over 10 years, the duo blends the atmospheric qualities of ambient music with Grady's folk-like vocals to create a style of music that is more similar to chamber music, rather than "chillwave".

The band recently released a new album, Towers, and I highly recommend you pick up a copy here or stream it below. Enjoy.

Veronica Falls - Veronica Falls

A few weeks ago, we posted a new track by Veronica Falls and stated that they had a new album coming out this fall. We are happy to report that their debut self-titled album (the cover is shown above) will be coming out September 20, on Slumberland. We are highly anticipating the release of this album.

As a bonus, here's the band covering one of my favorite songs of all time
