Premiere: “The Words” by tiny deaths

by Jay Gabler

July 27, 2014

Tiny deaths is a new project that unites Claire de Lune (The Chalice) with Grant Cutler (Lookbook, Grant Cutler and the Gorgeous Lords). We've been playing tiny deaths' song "Ocean," and we're now pleased to premiere their new track "The Words."

"The heart and soul of this project is [Grant's] moody soundscapes that he is able to create," Claire tells David Campbell on this week's Local Show. "As a singer, I live there. I exist there as a character in the story, but the setting where it takes place is Grant. He creates the world that I live in as a singer in this project."

See tiny deaths—Claire playing with a new live band, as Grant now lives in New York—at First Avenue on August 1.
