While watching PBS at 3am, Alejandra caught a show about the School of Seven Bells: a mythical South American pickpocket academy that may or may not have existed in the �80s. The idea of seven minds working as one appealed to her, as did the phrase�s cryptic musicality, and a creative spark ignited.
After early recordings popped up on Sonic Cathedral, Table of Elements, and [Career] Suicide Squeeze, the band landed at Ghostly International and released their highly acclaimed debut full length, Alpinisms. And now with their 7� single Half Asleep/Caldo, School of Seven Bells is stylishly splitting the difference between shoegazing introspection and stargazing dream pop.
Both Alpinisms and the Half Asleep 7" single are available now via the Ghostly International store.
