We are beyond excited to share with you our new band, Edlear. (
@edlear420 ) “Formed after a chance encounter in Sept. 2023, Edlear is a band heavily influenced by by slowcore/ adjacent genres, weed, and mental unrest. Their debut singles, Dishes/The Lottery, move circuitously - never fully presenting themselves, forever dancing somewhere in the peripheral. Not quite spinners, not quite stoned, the music moves along at a workmanlike stumble. Always teetering on that precious edge of fuzzed out bliss and a crumbling internal monologue. The songs manage to pull you in with their lush distortions and sneak in the gut punches of a life squandered. The communal experience of losing the lottery becomes a solitary albatross and a quiet life of responsibility its sullen counterpart. There is loss in everything, even in not getting fucked up. Edlear consists of Jacob Collings, Matt Short, Jake Morse, and KC Keith. The debut release of Dishes/ The Lottery is a collaborative cassette release recorded, mixed, and mastered by Seth Beck at Ray Future (Chicago) being released by Flesh & Bone Records and Pleasure Tapes (Portland). The limited copies available via Pleasure Tapes contain pressed baby’s breath. Edlear will have more music and shows later this year/ in early 2025”
