The Chicago-based, multicultural duo of vocalist Via Rosa and producer Na'el Shehade are pleased to share their inaugural effort, Gallows, on vinyl for the first time. In early jam sessions the chemistry was clear; Rosa's soulful delivery interlocked with Shehade's chic Chicago house-infused production style. A lovesick sound emerged with their debut EP, Gallows in November of 2016. In celebration of it's five year anniversary, Gallows will be physically released for the first time exclusively on violet vinyl. The eight track effort has succeeded in breathing life into the resurgence of '80s iconic synth, resulting in a sound that blends R&B with dance music that's sprinkled with funk and bursting with emotion. Named after "Gallows Humor," the album reflects on the pain of heartbreak, while also giving a nod to the comedy of that same experience. Self-described as "happy-sad music," Drama presents a collection of songs on Gallows that bring you up when you are feeling down. "As a band, Drama has seemingly stuck a flag in the sand, defining itself as a contrast to the various Chicago music scenes." -Chicago Tribune
