Tanbark's New Self-Titled LP Drops Today

Today, Tanbark, comprised of Chloe Nelson and James Jannicelli, released their new self-titled LP 'Heart-Shaped Locket.' The nine-track set came at a time when the band finally felt at home in their adopted hometown of Brooklyn, New York. 'We wanted to make an honest portrayal of our first few years in this massive city and grapple with the smallness of our constant search for an authentic voice and beauty underneath the hustle,' Nelson has said of the album. 'We smoothed the edges of our personal experiences and brought some warm country music tones, pedal steel and piano, to a project recorded in the middle of a harsh winter.' The album rolls between fantasy, innocence and desire, sweetened by the pair's lush harmonies and Nelson's rich, ethereal vocal style.

Tanbark's New Single HEART-SHAPED LOCKET Out via Folk Radio UK

Brooklyn-based duo Tanbark has shared 'Heart-Shaped Locket,' a new track from their forthcoming self-titled album, out May 31st. The song is the third from the record, and was inspired by, as most of the songs on Tanbark, talismans and good luck charms. ''Heart-Shaped Locket' was inspired by a locket that I got at an antique market in London,' says band member Chloe Nelson. 'I carefully drew tiny illustrations of people in it, and this personal touch unintentionally made the people indecipherable to anyone but myself. A locket is something you wear closed in plain sight, hiding the things or people that you most treasure. I wanted to evoke hastily purchased gift shop tchotchkes and a getaway car with dusty pink dice on the rear-view mirror, rolling out of town. Halfway through the song, the narrator gets a bit less reliable; she pleads and maybe longs for something she does not quite have.”
