We're thrilled to announce another new addition to the SLN stable of stars! Please welcome Los Angeles, CA’s indie-pop-punk act, Velour Academy. Originally formed as a two-piece, made up of songwriter/bassist Jamil Kassimali and songwriter/vocalist Shannon Martinez, Velour Academy spent years perfecting their poppy punk sound on a series of demos before expanding to a full band and recording their first formal album, “Ooze”, in 2017. That was followed by the group’s second full-length, entitled "CHISME", which was originally self-released by the band in 2021. It's now been adopted by us at team SLN and today (March 4) we are formally re-releasing it! "CHISME" is available as a pink vinyl 10", pink cassette and/or digital long player. All formats can be found in our WEB STORE and on our BANDCAMP. The album is already on all the streaming platforms, so there are tons of ways to listen. The 10" and cassette are being distributed by Recess Ops and you can bet that you can find copies in a variety of cool shops in both Denver and LA. Thanks for following along and checking out Velour Academy!
