- Cambridge-Newton-Framingham, MA (1888PressRelease) March 06, 2018 - New England-based indie-folk duo The Promise is Hope is currently seeking supporters to back the release of their second album. The band is using an Indiegogo campaign which is live until April 1st to raise financial backing (link: www.igg.me/at/tpih2). The 11-track LP was recorded and produced in Batavia, NY at Old Bear Records. It is an examination of death, joy, grief, hope, loss and love. The songs explore the ways in which experiencing darkness can lead us into new seasons of light. The album is planned for release in May 2018.
Contributions made to the campaign will support the printing/pressing of CDs and vinyl records; ensure that the artists can hire a creative team that, photography & design of the album, videos, website and new tour materials; and support the Public Relations campaign needed to promote the album to national press and folk radio platforms. Campaign contributors are offered perks for various levels of contribution.
Ashley and Eric L’Esperance first felt the electricity of their undeniable chemistry at an impromptu song swap. A year and a half later they were married and released their debut album “Where We’ve Been & Where We’re Going.” Jessica Phaneuf, WUMB, says “I listen to A LOT of music, and this [album] would be at the top of the pile.” The Promise is Hope has earned their place among New England’s finest emerging indie-folk duos. Their live performances, textured with two voices and guitars, are often described as beautifully moving, inspired, and connected. With deep reverence for songwriting, the duo’s music explores the joys, mysteries, and struggles of the human experience. They were invited to perform at the 2017 Connecticut Folk Festival, and have shared the stage with national folk artists such as Amy Speace, Antje Duvekot, and Gaelynn Lea. They have captured the hearts of listeners in hundreds of crowds.
