The LA based Night Dreamer is excited to announce the forthcoming release of their debut EP Treasure on October 11.   Treasure is the outcome of years of purposeful exploration and world-building, the merging of two divergent voices into one unified vision. The duo first discovered their ineffable chemistry back in early 2017, when Southern California-based musician Mindy Song and TheSmashing Pumpkins guitarist Jeff Schroeder met up for an experimental session at his studio in Chicago. 'I had no plan other than to just get together with Jeff and see where things might go,' says Song, a classically trained violinist and pianist. 'But then once we got going, it was an immediate explosion of sound and inspiration.'  Today the duo shares the EP's first single 'Another Life.'  The track showcases the band's penchant for crafting elegantly collaged elements of dream-pop and noise and sometimes heavy metal. The band note, ''Another Life' was one of the first songs we wrote as Night Dreamer while we were still finding our sound. It was inspired by the destruction of Mother Nature, government monitoring, AI technology and this scary strange world we live in. Sometimes makes you want to be a part of another life...'  The single premiered via Consequence Of Sound who say 'Schroeder's guitar echoes under ominous bass and reporting drums, an almost unsettling alternative marriage. It's Song's vocals, carefully veering between airy and strained textures,  that center the equilibrium as she sings,.' Night Dreamer shot a video for the track -- directed by John Isberg it was shot at an abandoned Air Force base.
