about

9-volt velvet, a band that features members of The Northern Lights and Viva Voce, including Mark Cross (guitar, bass, vocals), Donnie Robertson (drums), and Kevin Robinson (guitar, vocals) is thrilled to announce the release of their highly anticipated new album, "Nude Beaches". This album is the culmination of their musical journey, showcasing their evolution as artists and the unique sounds they have curated together

Inspired by their natural chemistry and a like-minded approach to music-making, 9-volt velvet embarked on an intense 3-week studio session in Dallas, TX June of 2023. "Nude Beaches" features 13 crafted tracks, each brimming with the band's signature blend of washed out fuzzy guitars, hypnotic circular bass lines, pounding beats, and whispery haunting vocals.

Throughout the album, 9-volt velvet explores the themes of freedom and self-expression. From the introspective lyrics to the intricate musical arrangements, every aspect of "Nude Beaches" reflects the band's commitment to pushing boundaries and taking risks. It is a sonic journey that invites listeners to embrace their own individuality and revel in the joy of truly being themselves.

Melt
by Whimsical

supported by 10 fans who also own “Nude Beaches”

Stunning and tranquil dream pop backed by strong shoegaze-like instrumentation. The two greatest facets of this album are the floaty female vocals that ride along the forefront and the expansive melodicism of the guitars that create moments of intensity Everything is delivered with a crystalline clarity, never becoming too washed out in droning sounds. There are certainly efforts to balance the more spirited or slow-burn moments found throughout the record Lorenzo

One Final Summit Before The Fall
by Submotile

supported by 9 fans who also own “Nude Beaches”

Shoegaze with a grand sound. Daniela threads highly melodic vocals into the seams between the driving guitar layers and the busy drum patterns. There is a heavy punch to this release and the thrust of it often sneaks up out of a hazy lull when you least expect it. A favorite of 2022 RandoRod

living in memory of something sweet

They Can Always Hurt You More

everything is alive
by Slowdive

supported by 8 fans who also own “Nude Beaches”

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über. https://tortue.substack.com/i/140348114/slowdive-everything-is-alive-dead-oceans Daniel Welsch
