SPELLES, the moniker for Los Angeles-based artist Kathryn Baar, is a distinctive voice in the indie music landscape, famed for her hauntingly atmospheric sound that weaves together a tapestry of alternative rock, folk, and ethereal vocals. With a musical aesthetic often likened to a modern take on Southern Gothic, SPELLES' narratives are steeped in mysticism and the supernatural, crafting an immersive listening experience that resonates with themes of the occult, self-exploration, and the darker aspects of human nature.
Her recent releases continue to build upon her enigmatic persona and expanding soundscape. Tracks like "Diving Into the Arms of the Divine" and "Night Terrors" blend otherworldly melodies with visceral lyrics, showcasing Baar's prowess in creating chilling yet beautiful songs. The evocative "Holy Hells" and "Ghost Ship" transport listeners to spectral dimensions, while acoustic renditions such as "Dead in the Water (Acoustic)" strip back the production to allow SPELLES' penetrating vocals and introspective songwriting to stand at the fore. With each release, SPELLES solidifies her position as a compelling storyteller and an innovative musical artist that defies easy categorization.
