Sometime around 2024, Vorhex Angel emerged seemingly out of the ether no social media presence, no identities, simply their name popping up in Nashville or New Orleans on a flyer here and there.

The music at those functions matched the mystery. They were loud, unhinged, and visceral as all hell. Album Tracks 1. A Prophecy 2. Weight 3. Okie's Song Pt. 1 4. Okie's Song Pt. 2 5. Honey 6. A Spark 7. The Great Fatted Bull (Stone Tablet #36)

Since the of her debut self-recorded EP, Jekyll/Hyde, in early 2014 via Domino, Taryn Miller has experienced many firsts as an artist - her first tour (with Courtney Barnett), her first SXSW (in 2014, in support of the EP ), and her first time working in a proper studio with a producer. And now, the 24-year-old who resides in Lawrence, KS and makes music under the moniker Your Friend, begins the process of another first - the of her debut full length album, Gumption. Gumption deals with growing pains that come from self-inducing this sense of quiet that can be uncomfortably revealing. InchI was sitting with myself so much, I got to know myself in ways I liked and ways I didn't like,Inch Miller admits. Gumption is a record of courage, as it's title suggests - of having the willingness to make necessary shifts, and to have a sense of self-awareness that ultimately leads to growth. Album Tracks 1. Heathering 2. Com Back from It 3. To Live with 4. Desired Things 5. Nothing Moved 6. Gumption 7. I Turned in 8. Who Will I Be in the Morning
