Premiere: Illiterate Light Share Video for New Track “Carolina Lorelei”

From Forthcoming Debut Album on Atlantic Records

May 23, 2019 Illiterate Light By Stephen Axeman Photography by Jimmy Fontaine

Virginia-based indie rock duo Illiterate Light have shared their video for their new single “Carolina Lorelei,” off of their forthcoming debut from Atlantic Records, and we are pleased to premiere it. The video features montaged footage of the band performing live at different venues. The track itself is a propulsive folk-rock anthem that emanates the firm conviction of the love the song is based on. Check out the video, as well as tour dates below.

On the making of the track, singer/guitarist Jeff Gorman had this to say in a statement to Under the Radar: “Carolina Lorelei came out of a moment when I was chopping wood in a small town north of Asheville, NC. I saw my partner walking up this hill to meet me, and her simple yet radiant beauty struck me like never before. She was glowing. My sense of time completely vanished and I fell so deeply in love with her. The song, in essence, is my attempt to unpack that blissful, quasi-mystical moment.”

Illiterate Light are Jeff Gorman (vocals, guitar, synth pedals) and Jake Cochran (vocal harmonies, stand-up drum kit). The duo began when they ran an organic farm together in the Shenandoah Valley which, eventually led to the band touring the mid-Atlantic via bicycle. Earlier this year, the duo released their debut EP Sweet Beast which led to their signing by Atlantic Records.

The scenarios are endless so let your imagination run free and
wild. The RC will still run until next June, after which your PC will start shutting down every
two hours. I would like to be your companion to official engagements, cultural events
as well as personal intimate friend for pleasurable and
hedonistic hours in private atmosphere. Cheerleader Facial is elegant; it is fine-tuned to
work well on mobile phones since films are also accessible in full MPEG4 format
for iPod as well as iPhone gadgets. Blondies and brunettes, thin and BBW,
coal black, white and Asians - truly a huge number of
young ladies are open for easygoing wham-bam after
work or on the ends of the week. That way, you can disregard the bar scene and spotlight on dating ladies
here where they feel progressively great and more secure. We are talking about
more than 776 videos as of now.
