THE VELDT in collaboration with an original ROBIN GUTHRIE (THE COCTEAU TWINS ) produced album
Pioneering shoegazers, THE VELDT recently released an original Robin Guthrie-produced single called, "The Everlasting Gobstopper." It's the first taste of their 'Illuminated 1989' album, a release of which has been anticipated for decades. Produced by Cocteau Twin's Robin Guthrie in 1989 and more recently remastered by Guthrie, the record was intended to be the band's first album, however their label Capitol Records shelved the recording until now.\xa0 The album is set to be released on November 24, 2023 via 5BC Records and Disc Drive.
One of the most notable first-wave shoe gaze bands, the Veldt was formed in North Carolina in the 1980s by\xa0 identical twins Danny Chavis (Guitarist) and Daniel Chavis (Vocalist, guitarist) . \xa0Their unique sound was influenced by The Cocteau Twins, however the brothers musical roots goes back to the church and southern juke- joints, and listening to music that included gospel, Motown and Pink Floyd. The Veldt formed in the late 80\u2019s in Raleigh amongst the legendary North Carolina music scene of the time, initially signing- leading to a chain of major-label relationships that took the
group across Europe and the U.S. playing shows with the likes of Throwing Muses, the Pixies, Cocteau Twins and the Jesus & Mary Chain, just to name a few.
