DRÆMINGS spent her early years reading dark fairy tales while listening to a warped cassette tape of Ace of Base's The Sign on repeat.
At 17, she ran away to San Francisco, where she was adopted by a gang of drag queens and street urchins. She embarked on a strange, magical adventure which included a short stint as a gangster rapper, a incubation period in India, and a heart-break fueled weekend that resulted in her writing 5 songs that would comprise her demo, and the birth of DRÆMINGS.
Her dark, powerful melodies, colorful lyrics and intense live show have drawn comparisons to the likes of Siouxsie , Bowie, Florence, and Chrissie.
She's currently the only female act, and one of the only alt-pop acts signed to the seminal metal label SUMERIAN RECORDS.
Her eclectic full-length, The Eternal Lonesome, produced by Eric Palmquist (The Bad Suns, Trash Talk, Night Riots)has just been released and is available in iTunes.

**********
Psychic Love is the musical project of multimedia artist Laura Peters, who refers to their sound as dream grunge. Combining Peters' dreamy vocals with Max Harrison's fuzzed out guitar, plus Liam McCormack on bass, the band calls to mind the warped love child of Nancy Sinatra and the Pixies. Their debut album The Hive Mind will be released this September.
