Palmer House is happy to announce our next release: “Pillars of Salt” from Max Stephens.

Max Stephens is a musician and producer in Everett, WA. With inspiration ranging from dance music, to old movie scores, to the hum of decaying technology, Stephens creates immersive electronic pieces, awash in texture.

Deep drones, hypnotic sequences and haunting ambience create a sense of distant longing that is simultaneously an indictment of, and a concession to, nostalgia.

Cassettes available Friday June 3

FUNERALHOMES debut EP “Haunts” is out in the world today, and SMI (Seattle Music Insider) had some kind words to say about it! Give it a read, then give the record a spin. Out on all streaming platforms today, cassettes will be available at the release show tomorrow night with Oliver Elf Army and I Will Keep Your Ghost!

Let me tell you about this Brad Heyne guy, this Everett guy, this bartending while basically playing a show at the same time guy, this FUNERALHOMES guy. But here’s the thing: I can’t, not really. This is what happens sometimes when two introverts inhabit the same spaces, even over the span of se...

It’s gonna be a good one

I published a review of Oliver Elf Army is sending thoughts and prayers on March 20, 2020. At that point in time, the band’s album release show had already been canceled due to the burgeoning virus crisis that has been riding on our backs ever since. I re-read my words, and after a good solid […...

Palmer House is proud to announce our first cassette release: “HAUNTS” the debut EP from Everett, WA musician Brad Heyne, aka FUNERALHOMES.

Heyne, who also plays in the popular Everett group, Tellers, began to write the FUNERALHOMES songs after his life shattered. Some years ago, he went through a difficult breakup. Alone, he drove from Washington down the California coastline, immersing himself in the gauzy early summer skies and the transcendent views onward. He found solace in the happily decaying dive bars of California’s nouveau Americana. So, later, as he began to write music again, the songs came out like digital pulp novels.  
 
Together, the record is a compact version of the drive southbound along the Pacific. There are soundscapes like orange and purple sunsets, lyrics like questions and conversations one might have after stopping to fill up on coffee and gasoline. There are names like Morro Bay and Santa Cruz. There’s reminiscing and hope. It’s a postcard from Heyne to you, filtered through his journey back home again.  

A limited number of “HAUNTS” cassettes will be available at the release show on 10/23 in downtown Everett, or mail order via our Bandcamp page.

What is the sound of someone falling? What is the reverberating, rippling tone of a hand outstretched, moving further and further away? And then, what does the echo resemble; the vibrations that hit their target and return back toward the one now lost to eternity? The answer is in the new music of FUNERALHOMES, the electronically-produced project from Everett musician, Brad Heyne. The answer is in the bridge that music, itself, can create, offering a chance back from the abyss.  

Palmer House is happy to welcome to the family. Catch their live debut tonight at ! 6:45pm at .wa
