Late last month, Strobobean<\/a> released two new hauntingly beautiful singles, “Ghost” and “Walking Alone,” ahead of their fall tour. The Cincinnati shoegaze post-rock trio is fronted by Pop Empire<\/a>‘s Katrina Eresman and Jake Langknech and Soften<\/a>‘s Brianna Kelly. Their debut 4-track EP, Winter<\/em><\/a>, arrived this past May.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m excited about our new tracks because they feel more mature and more intentional than the recordings on the Winter<\/em> EP, which we did ourselves for demoing purposes, but then liked them enough to release them,\u201d Katrina tells AudioFemme. \u201cI like those still, but in the case of the two tracks, \u2018Walking Alone\u2019 and \u2018Ghost,\u2019 we had more experience playing together and maybe more confidence and style going into it. Plus, we had our talented friend Henry Wilson do the recording for us, which let us relax into the songs and the parts rather than worry about things like mic placement.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anchored by iridescent guitar patterns and hypnotic vocals, \u201cGhost\u201d and \u201cWalking Alone\u201d can be streamed digitally and are available as a split cassette tape with Cleveland surf band Forager<\/a>. With their first year behind them and their debut EP and two new singles out, Strobobean hits the road this October.<\/p>\n
