With their debut album due out next year, Novella share a glimpse at what's to come with their new Murmurs EP, released on cassette on Monday 14th October via Italian Beach Babes.

Featuring four new songs recorded in one day by Jack Cooper from Mazes and Mark Jasper at SoundSavers in Homerton, the tape showcases a collection of songs being worked on by the band ahead of recording their forthcoming album. Listen to '' here:

The radiant 'Blue Swallows' and slow, bass-heavy swell of 'Follow' might be familiar to fans, have been refined over the course of many live shows, and come paired with an unfinished jam called 'Phrases', as well as a slow-paced version of last year's Shangri-La's inspired single, 'Mary's Gun'. 

The band are going into the studio at the end of the year to record their new album, and their last show of the year will be the cassette tape launch party in a few weeks' time:

Friday 11th October - The Shacklewell Arms, London (w/ Blueprint Blue)


Novella are Sophy, Suki, Hollie and Iain

Widowspeak // Ballad of the Golden Hour

With its members originating from The Netherlands, Spain and the UK, the indie-rock three piece CIEL ultimately met on the South Coast of England where they distilled their differing backgrounds and influences into grunge-pop finery. Straddling the creative baggage of three countries' scenes, whilst not really feeling like they belong to any of them, CIEL’s music has a nagging yet fresh, dark and sometimes quietly glorious quality to it. Drawing influences from garage rock, goth and shoegaze, the band’s upcoming work (produced by Blood Red Shoes' Steven Ansell) sees them reflect a moodier and grittier direction, yet still maintaining their established melodic pop essence. 

CIEL’s DIY work ethic shines through in every part of their work. Early on the band caught the eye of BBC 6’s Steve Lamacq who included them as a spotlight artist on his show. They gained further radio plays across the UK and US (BBC 6 Music, KEXP, WFUV, BBC Introducing, Amazing Radio) as well as loyal support from online publications including CLASH Magazine, Under The Radar and Earmilk. The trio soon flourished in the south of the UK, supporting the likes of Penelope Isles, Sasami and She Drew The Gun as well as selling out headline shows in London and Brighton.
