From their upcoming EP that will be released this summer, "Cursive" is Your Local Dance Hall's first release since their 2021 debut album that was recorded in quarantine. While pandemic restrictions have eased since then, the husband/wife duo's basic premise remains the same: write music that makes you want to move, and record it using the equipment within your reach.

Cursive

Your Local Dance Hall started in March 2020 as a quarantine project. Feeling stir crazy and not up for making sourdough, husband and wife duo Chris and Ashleigh Reade recorded an album using only the equipment they had at home: an iPhone, the microphone on some old earbuds, and an amateur knowledge of Garageband. Two years later, they are writing again and releasing a single in advance of their next EP that will drop this summer. While pandemic restrictions have eased, the basic premise for Your Local Dance Hall remains the same: write music that makes you want to move, and record it using the equipment within your reach
