LEATHERS DROPS NEW SINGLE “CRASH”
ARTOFFACT RECORDS
LEATHERS (Shannon Hemmett, ACTORS) latest single “Crash” is nothing less than a sleek and hypnotic encounter with danger; real and imagined.
Dreamy, enchanting darkwave with an unmistakably talented songwriter at the helm, the new song is charming to say the very least. Picking up where last year’s “Fascination”Β and “Highrise” left off, “Crash” delivers exactly what the steadfast, ever-growing fan base that Hemmett’s electric solo project has been waiting for.
On the new track, Hemmett comments: “Iβve been exploring the theme of danger in my writing. Crash is about the literal danger we find ourselves in, but also the tempting, insidious kind of trouble we can get into with the right company.β
More About Leathers
In 2016, LEATHERS assembled at Jacknife Sound where the project bore the whirring rush of βMissing Scene,β channeling the essence of early 4AD Cocteau Twins punctuated with stringent hooks. 2017βs βDay for Nightβ coaxed a softer, glittering hue that has been recognized by various publications including Diamond Deposits, I Die: You Die, and Impose Magazine. On βPhantom Heart,β steeped in cinematic synth that coats the gated, motorik beat pulsing underneath, her velvet crushed vocals break to the forefrontβsleeplessly searching for the truth between fantasy and reality. And then thereβs the progressive earworm that is Reckless, the new single that promises to catapult LEATHERS onto the forefront of smart, catchy, and serious synth music.
