Tele Novella House of Souls

Tele Novella is an inspired macabre-pop band out of Austin, TX. They are dreamy, they are spooky, and they write real fucking songs. While one may detect the influence of the nocturnal jungles of Os Mutantes or the lapeled, knee-socked smarts of Belle and Sebastian, they have cobbled together a special kind of mineral all their own worth making room on the Table of Elements for. Earnest, yet sinister; Vampy, but sentimental. The precise recipe that goes into this concoction cannot be revealed, but it is a delightful snow globe of warm, colorful darkness. In 2014, they won a contest for free recording time at Dub Narcotic Studios in Olympia, WA. This resulted in their first single, "Trouble in Paradise" that was later featured in the ABC television series 'Pretty Little Liars.' Not long after that in 2015, their EP 'Cosmic Dial Tone' was released on Los Angeles label Lolipop Records on the heels of a Wes Anderson tribute compilation (American Laundromat Records), to which they contributed a contagiously glad version "Stephanie Says" by The Velvet Underground. After a year of writing and recording, they will now finally unveil their much-anticipated debut LP 'House of Souls' to be released Fall of 2016 on Yellow Year Records, and it will be glorious!
