Wet Wings - Feeeel It

We are pleased to introduce our newest signing - Wet Wings.



Wet Wings is Lucy and Darian.

Together they layer harmonies and melodic hooks over
skittish guitar, ghostly keyboard lines, and atmospheric samples.

While Wet Wings are a very new band, they have already have some very nice things written about them - “beautifully misty/ haunting” (on the Pitchfork-curated Altered Zones), “The kind
of harrowing incantation carried by worried and cloudy strings” (Delicious Scopitone, bizarrely translated from French), and “positively glowing” (Rose Quartz).

'Feeeel' it is the first single from Wet Wings’ forthcoming debut album, Glory Glory which we will be releasing on July 4. Foreshadowing the cavernous jubilation of the album, 'Feeeel It' conjures the supernatural with equal parts hope and skepticism. We are pleased to offer ‘Feeeel It’ as a pay-what-you-like single.

'Feeeel It' is accompanied by this beautifully shot video made by Johnny Lyon and Sophia Jenny.



Wet Wings debut album 'Glory Glory' is now available for preview and pre-order.

New Princess Chelsea Single, B-side & Video

"The Cigarette Duet" is the new single from Princess Chelsea's album Lil' Golden Book and features guest vocals and guitar from Jonathan Brunette.

Somewhat of an anomaly on the album - Princess Chelsea ditches the synths and cinematic orchestration and instead dishes up a catchy 60s style pop duet reminiscent of Nancy & Lee.

B-Side “Positive Guy Meets Negative Man”, is a more off-beat slightly ridiculous duet with bandmate Brad Fafejta (TeenWolf / Lil’ Golden Book album artist). It’s lyrics are co-written with Brad, and this song first popped as an interlude during early TeenWolf shows. It is also possibly the first song to combine hard-core style screaming with a pretty chamber pop arrangement.

You can obtain Cigarette Duet / Positive Guy Meets Negative Man as a single on the Lil’ Chief Bandcamp or on Itunes.

We are also pleased to premiere the new music video for Cigarette Duet, featuring an utterly sensual bad-boy guitar solo that rivals Slash’s epic jam in the desert during Guns N' Roses "November Rain" music video.

Princess Chelsea's Debut Album Out Today!

Today Lil' Chief Records is proud to present the debut album by Princess Chelsea - Lil' Golden Book.

It's been nearly three years in the making and features a 15 page Little Golden Booklet designed by bandmate Brad Fafejta.

Early reviews have been positive with the Sunday Star Times naming it 'album of the week' and aptly describing it as 'when cute meets creepy'.
Graham Reid has called it 'mischievous and sharp' and the NZ Herald has likened it to "growing pains in the happiest place on earth".

New Zealanders - you can pick up a copy at your local record store!

And those of you who are reading from overseas - you may order your cd copy from the Lil' Chief Store (with a free download) or obtain it digitally on iTunes or on the Lil' Chief Bandcamp page.

Lil' Chief will be looking to expand it's horizons in the coming months pressing some of your favorite Lil' Chief albums on vinyl.

Lil' Golden Book will be our first vinyl release and will be released later in the year on pink vinyl!

Ooh and there's two album release shows as well...

Gladeyes Album Release Wellington

We are playing our final show this Friday the 29th of April with St. Rupertsberg at the Mighty Mighty in Wellington. Come Along!

Shadows Explode Out Now!

Today we are proud to present The Gladeyes latest record - "Shadows Explode".



Once again our favourite girl group has come up with something really special for you. It was recorded over six months as spring gave way to summer toward the end of 2010. In contrast to its predecessor, which was the product of a decade's worth of writing and two years of production, Shadows Explode is less laboured, and has more in common with the long string of hand-made and home-recorded EPs which make up The Gladeyes output through the 2000s.

Have a listen here. It's also available on CD at our Lil Chief Store and digitally on iTunes.

Don't forget that the first of the band's two release show is tonight at 5/1 Cross Street, Auckland!

A Free Gladeyes Single!

The Gladeyes are well known for their sweet pop melodies with a sinister edge. 'Honey Pie' (the first single from new album 'Shadows Explode" (out on Lil' Chief on 21 April)) takes that lead, with it's ominous 60s bass line (think the Walker Brothers doing Summertime), gently riffing guitar and sweet girl vocals delivering the tragic story of love gone awry.

The Chief is kindly offering 'Honey Pie' as a pay what you like download.



The Gladeyes are performing their last ever Auckland show and celebrating this albums release on Thursday night this week – at 5/1 Cross Street, $5 on the door and it’ s BYO.
