With 4 weeks to the release of their dramatic and diverse second record ‘A Monument’, out May 7th on City Slang, Portland quartet TU FAWNING have uploaded a surreal new video for their single ‘Anchor’.

‘Anchor’ is a crystalline pop gem… a dark opal, reflecting a whole spectrum of colours upon its dark body. Though we generally agree “all that glitters isn’t gold”, this is the true exception. The track is to be released on 7” vinyl for Record Store Day (April 21st), backed with a stripped back remix by Haushka.

Try to label them as Portland’s most eccentric band or as the apocalyptic ABBA, to no avail, it just doesn’t grasp what TU FAWNING are all about. One thing is clear though, the trail that they are blazing for themselves right now is the one of a band that doesn’t fit any genre labels – a rocky pathway only to be mastered by the unique, the adventurous and the skilled.

Led by Corrina Repp and Joe Haege (Menomena, 31Knots), they expand upon the dark, vaudevillian vibes of their 2010 debut LP ‘Hearts On Hold’ with ‘A Monument’. The album is steeped in the band’s love of music from around the world, with Repp’s formidable, smoky voice leading the charge throughout, at once ethereal and earthly.
