Darby Cicci, multi-instrumentalist and producer of critically acclaimed band The Antlers, is set for the debut of his solo project School of Night. The School of Night EP was written, recorded and produced between 2011-2012 mostly during Cicci’s brief breaks from recording and touring with The Antlers. “I would go to my studio, play synths in the dark, collect sounds that I love and try to build little worlds I could just dissolve into and explore,” Cicci notes of the writing and recording process. “At first it was mostly playtime and I wasn’t planning on releasing it, but if I’ve learned anything from my experiences, it’s that the more you open up and share about yourself, the more you’ll learn.”
Cicci produced The Antlers’ last three critically acclaimed albums, Hospice (2009), Burst Apart (2011) and Undersea (2012), as well as records for Porcelain Raft and Yellow Ostrich. He has also made countless remixes for artists including Neon Indian, PVT and Freelance Whales.
Lawrence Rothman a musician from the Midwest, lived a nomadic life before settling in Los Angeles to concentrate on a musical project inspired by the writing's of Charles Bukowski and a fascination with RnB ,film scores and house music. On his entrancing debut 7" single "Montauk Fling,” Lawrence sing's in a haunting baritone as rich and resonating as that of Leonard Cohen over a minimalist 808 beat about the secret lives that inhabit ones psyche.
