HALEY WEISS: Did “How Life Works” emerge from like a particular experience?ĬECILIA DELLA PERUTI: Kind of-it’s a relationship tune. Tomorrow evening, you can find the group at the Satellite in Los Angeles, playing “How Life Works” in celebration of the single’s release. Now, after years of touring with the likes of Børns, Charlie XCX, and Night Terrors of 1927, Della Peruti-along with her bassist Brad Bowers and drummer Rhys Hastings (who tracked and co-wrote on the album, respectively)-will perform own band’s music.

With roomy, entrancing vocals and guitar guiding the way, they take inspiration from classic rock (frontwoman Cecilia Della Peruti’s formative first album was Fragile by Yes), Bauhaus, and West African music. While Los-Angeles based trio Gothic Tropic technically fall under the indie pop umbrella, their true genre is encapsulated in their name. CECILIA DELLA PERUTI IN LOS ANGELES, JULY 2016. ![]()
