Portland Stoner Rock band Blackwater Holylight have announced their highly-anticipated second album, Veils of Winter is dropping on October 11th from the vaunted Riding Easy Records. Check out the heavy first single ‘Motorcycle’ right now! You can catch the band tearing it up on the road this fall supporting former RidingEasy labelmates Monolord throughout the US in November, and Thou in September, plus a handful of hometown shows.
Bassist/Vocalist Allison Faris comments:
“The process of this album was vastly different from our first record. One, because we recorded it over the course of a few weeks, whereas the first record was over the course of about a year. And two, this album was a true collaboration between the five of us. Each of us had extremely equal parts in writing and producing, we all bounced ideas off each together, and we all had a say in what was going on during every part of the process.”
“One of our favorite things about this album is that because it was so collaborative, we didn’t compartmentalize ourselves into one vibe.” She continues. “It’s heavy, psychedelic, pop, shoegaze, doom, grunge, melodic and more. The whole process was extremely organic and natural for us, we were just being ourselves.”
Veils of Winter will be available on LP, CD and download on October 11th, 2019 via RidingEasy Records. Pre-orders are available at https://www.ridingeasyrecs.com.
