Angelo De Augustine signs to Asthmatic Kitty and debuts tender folk track "Truly Gone"
Angelo De Augustine, the latest signing to Sufjan Stevens' esteemed Asthmatic Kitty label, today debuts beautiful new single "Truly Gone".
The 24-year-old Thousand Oaks, CA native has already self-released a bunch of music, including 2014's Spirals Of Silence LP, but this new offering marks a leap upwards. Now having inked a deal with the same label that counts Stevens, Lily & Madeleine, DM Stith, Fol Chen, and Mozart's Sister among its artists, De Augustine has a proper platform to shine - and shine he does.
"Truly Gone" is a tender opus that forces time to stop in its tracks, with cascading folk guitars and whispered vocals muddled together to create three-and-a-bit minutes of sun-speckled beauty. With fresh, summery tones and a rare sincerity in spades, this is an assured stride into what's sure to be a gleaming future.
De Augustine's debut record for Asthmatic Kitty is due out later this summer, with details due soon.
