Half Waif sign to Cascine for new EP, touring in 2017
Half Waif, the art pop project of Nandi Rose Plunkett, released their very good sophomore album Probable Depths earlier this year via DZ Tapes, and they’ve now signed to Cascine Records (Yumi Zouma, Chad Valley) for a new EP. It’s called form/a and it drops in February 2017 via the new label. You can hear a sample of the new music in the EP trailer below.
Half Waif will tour Europe in 2017, but first they’re doing a short Northeast US run with Forth Wanderers. That includes a Brooklyn show on January 13 at Baby’s All Right with Trace Mountains (mem LVL UP) and Stolen Jars. Tickets for that show go on sale Wednesday (11/30) at 10 AM. All dates are listed below.
We recently spoke to Nandi Rose for Pandora as part of our Fuel Your Hustle Indie Mixtape. You can listen to that now at Pandora.
Half Waif share members with Pinegrove (and recently toured with them), and Pinegrove are currently on tour with Kevin Devine, with a NYC show at Irving Plaza coming up on Dec 8.
