Music News - Mice on Stilts release first single from debut album

Mice on Stilts release first single from debut album

18 March 2016 - 0 Comments

Khandallah is the haunting lead single from Auckland band Mice on Stilts’ forthcoming album Hope for a Mourning – due out April 15th 2016.

Khandallah is a universal love song about finding a space where two individuals exist without anxiety or expectation of each other, romantic or otherwise.
 
Songwriter Ben Morley says, “I used to work for an internet provider and every day I'd speak to different people from all around Aotearoa. While working there I spoke to a woman who lived in Khandallah. For whatever reason the word just kind of stuck with me. I looked up the suburb and read all about it. The name means 'resting place of god'."

Mice On Stilts traverse genre distinctions to create their own sound, once described as “a sombre, subtle and slow-to-grow opus that virtually exudes a cinematic aura others of their kind often only allude to.”

Khandallah is now available for purchase from iTunes and all good DSPs. Hope For A Mourning album pre-orders available here.

Khandallah is streaming now on Australian indie music blog Hhhhappy and on Soundcloud.

Hope For A Mourning is to be released on April 15th via Aeroplane Music Records and will be available for digital purchase. Physical CDs and special edition art books (with accompanying digital download) will also be available from Flying Out record store.
