Katie Ellen have revealed the details of their debut LP.
Consisting of Chumped singer and guitarist Anika Pyle and drummer Dan Frelly, as well as guitarist Anthony Tinnirella and bassist Eric Sheppard, the band will put out 'Cowgirl Blues' on July 14 through Lauren Records. Discussing it, Pyle said:
“I wrote the record at the end of a formative creative project and an eleven-year relationship that lasted for much of my young adult life. It represents, to me, the reimagining of identity and the search for personal truth, a process that can be harrowing if you discover that what you want defies people’s expectations of your gender, your sexuality, and your future. If following your truth requires upheaval of the normative and the status quo, stay and you could be happy but you will always be at odds with yourself. Go and you accept a path of rebirth and constant negotiation, not always ‘happy’ but wild, free and true.”
The album follows their three-track 'Wild' demo, which was released early last year on Jeff Rosenstock’s Quote Unquote Records and the 'TV Dreams' 7", which was put out by Lauren Records in October.
