March 4, 2020 For Immediate Release Ohmme Announce New Album, Fantasize Your Ghost, Out June 5th Via Joyful Noise Recordings Watch the Video for Lead Single, “3 2 4 3,” HERE On Tour Now with Wye Oak, Announce SXSW and Spring Tour Photo Credit: Ash Dye Ohmme - the Chicago-based band of Sima Cunningham and Macie Stewart - will release their new album, Fantasize Your Ghost, on June 5th via Joyful Noise Recordings, and today present their lead single/video, “3 2 4 3.” In conjunction, they announce their SXSW appearances and a North American tour (find tickets at ohmmemusic.com/tour). Fantasize Your Ghost is the stunning and muscular follow-up to their 2018 debut Parts. Following intensive tours with acts like Wilco, Iron & Wine, Twin Peaks, and more, Fantasize Your Ghost is the direct result of the band spending more time on the road than in Chicago. It’s deeply concerned with questions of the self, the future, and what home means when you're travelling all the time. “3 2 4 3” tackles the terrifying realization of needing to make a change. The song opens with the two singing in transfixing harmony, "Looked in the mirror the other day / Caught my reflection / My mouth had moved a different way / The muscles were straining." Their deft scene-setting and the way their disparate voices blend together heightens the song's inherent anxiety. Its accompanying video, filmed in Mexico City and directed by Alejandra Villalba García, features the pair. "Sima and Macie explained to me that the song was about seeing the landscape/neighborhood change in front of your eyes even though you don't want it to change,” says García.
