South-London born, Atlanta-based Puma Blue - the alias of Jacob Allen - has today released a surprise album, antichamber which is available now via Blue Flowers.
Alongside sharing the 13-track body of work, which follows January’s single, “tapestry” – supported at Stereogum, Paste Magazine, Northern Transmissions, The Line of Best Fit, CLASH and more – Allen has announced 3 intimate headline shows for May in New York, Los Angeles and Atlanta (dates below). Tickets for all shows are on sale this Friday, February 21 at 10 AM local time.
antichamber marks a sonic shift for Puma Blue with Allen writing away from the full band setup focusing on obscure electronic textures and acoustic instrumentation. Whereas Puma Blue’s previous material has honed in on the centre point between trip-hop, Jazz and electronica, antechamber demonstrates a raw and direct approach to songwriting.
It’s vulnerable and crushingly beautiful with vocals and guitar being the sole components, at times delivering dense narratives (“tapestry”, “hotel room”) and at others the simplest sentiment (“in the absence of you”)
