Sleeper’s Bell — the Chicago folk duo of Blaine Teppema (vocals/guitar) and Evan Green (guitar) — announce their debut album, Clover, out February 7th via Angel Tapes / Fire Talk, and share its lead single/video, “Over.” Clover presents Teppema’s long-standing full-band vision for Sleeper’s Bell, and assembles Chicago’s finest as her backing band to spit-shine their dive bar wisdom into polished folk-rock.
Conceived as a practice in writing letters to her younger self, the songs on Clover mine Teppema’s teenage journals and respond to those entries from the perspective of an adult trying to heal. Clover offers 9 snapshots captured through a youthful lens but colored by time, as Teppema has poured over lyrics, reshaped songs, and recruited collaborators to the project.
Clover is available on a very limited pressing of classic black vinyl, as well as a run of cassette tapes. Pre-order now!
