MEMBERS OF UK GROUP THE CHAP RELEASE NEW PROJECT OMO THE WHITE ALBUM INVITE YOU TO HAVE A “TEA BREAK,” AVAILABLE FOR FREE DOWNLOAD

UK label Lo Alternative Frequencies (LOAF) is delighted to announce the US release of a new project featuring members of UK group The Chap (Ghostly International), called Omo. With the release of Omo’s debut, The White Album, the band and label are offering a free mp3 download of the song “Tea Break.”

Omo is a new band comprised of pan-European rockers The Chap’s keyboardist Berit Immig and visual artist, David Muth, both previously members of London based band Karamasov (Satellite Records). Together they make pop that delights and surprises, eminently hummable and chewable, it’s post pop pop for the now generation. The band’s debut, The White Album, will see a proper US release on Sept. 22nd. The White Album is an album full of spiky little pop gems. A little like Laurie Anderson jamming with the Tom Tom Club, or a collaboration of Laurie Anderson and Young Marble Giants, mixed by Ricardo Villalobos, occasionally joined by Enoch Light on vibes and Raymond Scott on synthesiser. This is a surefire chart hit in a parallel universe where all TV programmes are made by David Lynch and every household owns a hover car.

If you’re looking for music with depth and character, that is fun and wants to get to know you, meet Omo.

The White Album Track listing:
1. Live Show
2. 2PM
3. ROV
4. Oversized
5. König
6. Tea Break
7. Her Body
8. Fish In The Tin

Omo will also be doing a split 7″ with The Chap for “Oversized/Well Done You,” to be released on Sept. 8th.
