Mariel Beaumont of post-punk outfit Church Girls breaks down their new EP 'Home' ahead of its release on September 7
Philadelphia based indie post-punk group Church Girls are on a quest to tap into listeners’ emotional marrow and explore the ways we work to become better humans a little at a time. This quest is fortified by a compelling mix of introspective lyrics, carefully layered melodies, a delightful mix of eclectic musical instruments (which sometimes include mellotrons, trumpets, mandolins and more) and Mariel Beaumont's hypnotizing vocals.
Formed in 2014, Church Girls released their debut EP 'Young Planes' in October of that year, followed by their impressive self-titled debut full-length effort. Their latest album was 2017's 'Hidalgo', which was buried under layers of dreamy pop melodies and a multitude of depth, with singles like 'Breaking Bones' and 'Holding On' displaying the band's most mature stuff so far.
