The album will see daylight on the 18th of October 2016 preceded by the first single 'Pollen Path' on August 30.

<em>Gila Man</em> is a discrete, surreal world – a wordless musical novella that merges a psychedelic Western with shadowy science fiction. It simultaneously evokes the wide-eyed wonder of discovery and the creeping dread of what horrors may lurk around the next corner. Featuring the stunning voice of English songwriter Chloë March, the album is at once beautiful and unsettling. <em>Gila Man</em>’s individual songs vividly evoke characters and scenes within the album’s imaginary narrative, casting dusty projections onto the mind’s eye. Wherever this music ventures, the listener is compelled to follow.
