Little Lunch Records is excited to share The Blankettes debut EP, ‘Witch On My Chest’, out Friday November 3.
Their first two singles were picked up widely by community radio – Wide Brown Land was playlisted on fbi in Sydney, reached #3 most played released on 4ZZZ in Brisbane and #2 on the Amrap Regional Charts.
The titular witch is a story Grace heard about night hags, a folk tale to explain waking up with tightness in your chest. The song the EP is named for is about realising that for the first time in a while you’ve been waking up without the witch, you’re as stress and worry free as you’ve been in years. It’s a cause for celebration, a huge moment of relief. She started to put this song together, and once Grace had the lyrics and guitar down, she sung this to herself for weeks on end. It was like a happy little reminder that things get better. And you should celebrate when they do – The Blankettes
All the songs on this EP have lived in Grace’s head for the last 7 years, and with the help of Gemma Wyer on bass and Marnie Vaughn on drums they’ve come to life. We hope they find a home in your head too.
All tracks were recorded by Chris Brownbill at Underground Audio and mixed by Carl Saff. ‘Witch On My Chest’ EP Artwork by Olivia Grbac. Tour poster artwork by Matt Deasy of No.7 Printhouse.
