Class Actress

Class Actress’ debut EP, entitled Journal of Ardency, will be released February 9 on Terrible Records (Chris Taylor from Grizzly Bear’s new label with Ethan Silverman), available digitally and on 10” vinyl. It also features songs produced by Scott Rosenthal and Jorge Elbrecht of Lansing-Drieden fame.

Class Actress began in Elizabeth Harper’s bedroom along with producer/psychoanalyst Mark Richardson and some choice vintage synths. The songs quickly grew legs, strutted out of the Greenpoint apartment and now can be seen lighting up all over dark stages. The band pulls from a variety of styles, ranging from the 80’s synth pop of Depeche Mode and New Order, the vivaciousness and sexuality of early Madonna, and the bubbly heartbreak of Mazzy Star.
