Chicago-based quartet SINGER have signed with Chicago-based heavyweight Drag City for their upcoming debut Unhistories, which doesn't quite have a solid release date as of yet besides a murky "forth. 2008" at the label's official site.
SINGER is a true Windy City amalgam boasting four young bucks, quite familiar to those who have kept up with the ever-evolving Chicago scene. They are Todd Rittmann (US Maple), Robert Lowe (90 Day Men, Lichens), and the brothers Vida, Adam, and Ben. The band has played several opening slots thus far and will play a show with Make Believe and De Triomphe February 22 at Chicago's Subterranean. (I bet you didn't think I could possibly throw another Chicago in, but you were wrong, sucka.)
You can listen to three tracks off Unhistories over at the band's MySpace and then wait impatiently for the disc to magically appear later this year.
