Monica Salazar and Jared Olmsted are both from California but they met and formed Courtship Ritual here in Brooklyn. They describe themselves ,Courtship Ritual are not a chillwave group, they are not a witch house group, they don’t play EDM music and they don’t play dubstep. Courtship Ritual are an original Post-Pop group of 2014, and their ditties are short, succinct and every one a potential swan song.
What do they sound like then The most prominent components to these ears are Salazar’s voice and Olmstead’s liquid bass, giving Courtship Ritual a dark, mossy vibe. There’s a little David J in there, maybe some early Eno or Japan, and they would make good openers for someone like Dum Dum Girls. The band’s debut album, Pith, is out now on GODMODE RECORDS.
