Indie-pop trio SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS are releasing their sophomore album Disconnect from Desire today, July 13th on Vagrant Records/Ghostly International. Produced by band member Benjamin Curtis and mixed by Jack Joseph Puig, the album was recorded in the band’s home studio and mixed in Los Angeles at Ocean Way Recording.
In anticipation of the new record, SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS performed an in-studio at WNYC on Soundcheck. The segment featured stripped-down performances of the Disconnect from Desire tracks “Windstorm” and “I L U”, as well as an interview with the band. The program is available on the WNYC website.
SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS, formed in 2007 by Benjamin Curtis (formerly of Secret Machines) and identical twins Alejandra and Claudia Deheza (formerly of On! Air! Library!), are currently preparing for a US headlining tour in support of Disconnect from Desire, beginning in September.
