“Secrets Tress Leave…” by DromemorD is coming to cassette April 11.

DromemorD is the solo project of Fort Wayne artist Phil Arbogast (formerly of Ecferus, House of Bread, Castles & All Nite Skate).

“I preimagined ‘Secrets Trees Leave…’ sounding like a crooner over upbeat polyrhythms, propelling trance-like seduction. What came out was often more of a dirge – rhythms experienced subliminally – vocals soft and aching. With DromemorD, I’ve never arrived at a predestined place. ‘Secret Trees Leave’ is an exit to a maze disguised as a woodland trail faintly worn.” - Phil Arbogast
