new Big Fred record + single via Post-Trash

we couldn't be happier to announce the first new full length record from Big Fred! The first single, "Swimmer" is streaming today via Post-Trash, and Oh Hi Hello is out September 1st.

From Dan: "Opening with a spritely guitar and rhythms akin to a bouncy ball falling down a flight of stairs, heavy bursts of chorus and delay set the warped tone for Conor McCann'swarbling vocals. It's all the fun that can be had while singing about perpetual weekend boredom and blending up your head, heart, and tongue. Just barely over a minute in length, Big Fred forgo a hook in favor of amping the intensity with sheer sludge-pop crunch, pushing forward like a freight truck"

stream Keeper's EP "Salting" out 8/4

we couldn't be more excited to share Keeper's Salting EP! This gorgeous and spare record is full of beautiful moments that arise out of the vast space that Keeper has created. Lauren of The Grey Estates says:

"There's a somber hopefulness to a guitar that's given room to expand, breathe and flourish, all the while Marissa Lorusso's vocals remaining a profound presence. There are some moments in music where you feel honored to be listening, as if you've accidentally stumbled upon a long hidden diary or a secret note passed among friends"
