I became aware of Chelsea Wolfe’s music last year when she released her collection of gothic folk songs called Unknown Rooms: A Collection of Acoustic Songs last year. It is a devastatingly atmospheric album that is also strikingly melancholic. Ever since, she’s kept me reeled in with fantastical visuals and a back catalogue of dark-edged guitar music. Next Wednesday, April 24th, Chelsea will make her debut in The Sugar Club. We had a brief chat about her music and identity…

Ireland will be the first stop on your European tour, tell us about your setup and plan for each evening…

This tour is going to be unique in that I’m combining the acoustic and electric sets. Typically I’d separate them, bringing my drummer and guitarist out for the electric set and my violinist out for the acoustic set, but we’ll all be there together onstage for this tour.

LA and Sargent House artist Chelsea Wolfe eschews a regular music video idea for some visual art, which is set to ‘Flatlands’, a calming yet cerebral track from Wolfe’s must-listen album Unknown Rooms from last year. The piece, directed by Charlene Bagcal features gothic tropes set to pastoral natural backdrop. Sumptuous.

Wolfe will be in Ireland sometime this year for gigs.

I’ve been playing Chelsea Wolfe’s beautiful new album Unknown Rooms: A Collection of Acoustic Songs quite a lot over the past month (listen to it). Its brittle gothic folk emantes from the speakers in a calming spacious way. Her label Sargent House recently captured two performances in their Glassroom. Above is ‘Spinning Centers’, a favourite from the album and below is a Sibylle Baier cover of ‘The End’ with Wolfe looking suitably gothic.

Chelsea Wolfe

The Sacremento singer-songwriter’s third album, a 25 minute collection of gothic folk songs called Unknown Rooms: A Collection of Acoustic Songs is as devastatingly atmospheric as it is strikingly melancholic. Spooky Halloween music.
