Augustines To Play Rough Trade NYC, 6/30 + New Album


Thursday, June 30
64 N 9th Street
Brooklyn, NY
Doors: 8PM / Show: 9PM
21+

The Augustines are set to release their new album, This Is Your Life on June 10. You can pre-order it HERE.

Their third album sees Augustines experimenting and traveling down new roads. Drummer Rob Allen elaborates: “we wanted to spread our wings a little bit on this record. We had in the past flirted with samples and what-not, but never really on the percussive side. We had great fun messing and experimenting with older analog instruments like 808’s and 909’s as well as more modern instrumentation, like the Roland Spd-SX and Maschine. For me it’s clear. This record shows we’ve tried to grow as musicians and not stay in our comfort zone. To grow as people. To improve”

  • June 30th - Rough Trade NYC - New York
  • July 27th - Bootleg Theater - Los Angeles
  • July 28th - Bottom of the Hill - San Francisco

Emily Jane White To Release New Album In July


Emily Jane White is scheduled to release her fifth album, They Moved In Shadow All Together on July 8. You can pre-order it HERE. Check out the beautifully bewitching "Frozen Garden" below.


The 11 songs on They Moved in Shadow All Together focus conceptually upon the symptomatology of trauma, a pattern of experiences marked by a fragmentation of the self. These songs contend with the impact of trauma on individual and collective identity – the shattered pieces within the psyche left to cope after tragedy, and the dissociative co-habitance of belief and disbelief that results. White wrote “The Black Dove” in support of the anti-racist struggle against police violence. In “Womankind,” she mourns the continuing epidemic of violence against women, and the silences that suppress the truths of survivors. 

White’s new body of work recounts for us the terrain of her empathic inner world. The breadth and depth of her maturing voice are evident. Her layered vocals effect a sense of camaraderie, a space populated with voices, angelic perhaps, definitively ethereal. She studied classical singing while working on this album, which enabled her to broaden her vocal range.
