CHIME SCHOOL (San Francisco USA on Slumberland Records)
San Francisco's Chime School announce a return to the United Kingdom this July.
Marrying the pristine jangle of electric 12-string guitars with nervy, hooky songs, Chime
School conjures a unique and instantly recognizable form of indie pop, rooted in the buoyant, driving pulse of their 1980’s and 90’s forebearers, while still locked in a kaleidoscopic stare with the genre’s 1960’s originators.
Following the release of their 2024 sophomore LP “The Boy Who Ran the Paisley Hotel,” on Slumberland Records, Chime School embarked on tours of the US West Coast, United Kingdom, France, and Spain, with appearances at the Paris Popfest and the Madrid Popfest.
Now a fully-fledged jangle-pop juggernaut, the quartet are making a return trip to the UK this July to play the sold-out Glas-Goes-Pop Festival! In advance of the festival, Chime School will team up with Slumberland Records labelmates Autocamper for four shows around the UK.
AUTOCAMPER
(Manchester UK, new album Safe Suburban Home UK and Slumberland Records USA)
Autocamper announce debut album ‘What Do You Do All Day’ via Slumberland and Safe Suburban Home Records.
Manchester’s Autocamper are the perfect pop antidote to the city’s predictable post-punk machismo. Like a Northern kitchen sink rendering of The Vaselines’ call and response motif, vocal duties are shared by Jack Harkins and Niamh Purtill—their world-weary reflections on bedroom tiffs and hungover misdemeanors capture the jangle pop spirit of the ‘80s without the C86 revisionism.
