Veruca Salt’s Louise Post has announced her debut solo album. Sleepwalker was produced by Matt Drenik and comes out June 2 via El Camino Media. Check out the lead single ‘Guilty’ along with the album’s cover art and tracklist below.
“I have always identified as a sleepwalker,” Post said of the album’s title in a press release. “I slept-walked around my house routinely when I was a child, and even down the street. I believe in hindsight it was me trying to process what was going on in my home with my parents’ troubled marriage. As far as I know, I stopped sleepwalking after the divorce when I was eight, but it has always been a part of me that I feel protective of, a little girl who I feel sad for.”
“Throughout it all, I felt like my higher purpose was screaming at me, trying to wake me up from my despair and setting me on a path of creativity,” she added. “I had felt paralyzed and desolate as the pandemic set in and writing these songs helped snap me out of my stupor and reclaim a small part of the solution.”
