A swirl of indie pop and post-punk with a devilish alchemy that summons both blues and beats, South Florida-based sibling-fronted teen outfit THE HAUNT wouldn’t be out of place at Vivienne Westwood’s late seventies London boutique; a new wave countdown on MTV’s 120 Minutes; baking in the sun at the Vans Warped Tour; or a dystopian dance club in space.

As part of a concept-based trilogy of singles based on otherworldly influences, THE HAUNT follow the release of their ominous debut track “Why Are You So Cold” as they unveil a new pop-oriented melodic single, “Cigarettes & Feelings.”

Co-written with Christian Medice (LovelyTheBand, P!NK, Hillary Duff), the track’s music video was inspired by French New Wave films, especially Jean-Luc Godard’s Masculin Féminin.

“Cigarettes & Feelings” features a bizarre love-triangle between 16-year old front-woman Anastasia, Alfonzo–an alien she’s befriended–and a handsome new love interest. ANASTASIA explains, “As I begin to fall in love with the new man, Alfonzo becomes more and more jealous, eventually leading him to accept defeat and wallow in his cigarettes and feelings.”

To close out 2019, the group will play a show with Red Jumpsuit Apparatus on December 14 at Rock Crusher in Crystal River, Florida. Tix/info: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/red-jumpsuit-apparatus-at-rock-crusher-tickets-79968771749
