Alaska Reid and Dylan Fraser have shared another track off their debut EP “Beast” as Witch Post. Their cryptic statement about the song reads, “Last night I left a big, raw soup bone at the end of the driveway with a note underneath. This morning the bone is gone and all that is left is shredded paper covered in pinkish slobber. I walk with a friend and we speak about it all; the note, the bone, the feeling that I had been harbouring in my gut that I needed to make contact. A few weeks back, I had pieced together the mystery of why neighbours’ small dogs would go missing once a month, or trash cans would be tipped over, slashed with claw marks. It’s all connected to those lonesome long howls that irritate people on moonlit nights.
To me it’s music. I saw his eyes once before, after a late night coming home. Now I can’t stop looking for those two silver moons glinting deep in the bushes. I know we have to speak. I will try again soon, maybe with fruit this time…”
“Rust” is out now!, We started Witch Post a year ago. We were both hesitant as we have solo careers but so far it’s as if a kind of magic pushed us to do it. We’re from thousands of miles apart and the whole thing is very strange.
Alaska kissed a witch post, Dylan found mermaid tears and visited in MT (and really rallied for this whole thing). Anyway, the story is in the song — winter solstice approaches, here is “Rust” for your hibernation.
