NEW YORK | JUNE 21, 2016: Alternative Pop Duo HEIRSOUND, formed by Alexa San Román & Dane Petersen (formerly of Love, Robot) recently announced the release of their colorful debut EP, titled Merge, set for 8/5/16. Merge EP consists of 6 songs, each song represented by a color that has an aura and a feeling, creating the color wheel. Up to the EP's release, HEIRSOUND will be releasing a slew of music videos produced by San Román herself, each with the corresponding color as the theme. Today, HEIRSOUND is thrilled to be partnering with Paste Magazine for the exclusive premiere of their latest video for "Hoods Up" [PURPLE], which can be viewed here. Here is what HEIRSOUND had to say about the song and video for "Hoods Up": "'Hoods Up' is not about one particular incident as it is more about describing a particular feeling. The chorus says 'We've got our hoods up' & it means just that. That mood where you put on a big sweatshirt and headphones & zone out away from everyone. The darkest song on the EP, 'Hoods Up' is lyrically sad, yet melodically beautiful & we are both very happy with how it turned out." - HEIRSOUND

HEIRSOUND are an Alternative Pop Duo formed in New York in December '14 around the talents of singer/songwriters Alexa San Román & Dane Petersen while the members were still in transition from a previous musical endeavor. Built around the dueling vocals & guitars of Petersen & San Román, the two set out to create an ethereal sound that they can call their own. Merging together from opposite sides of the country (Petersen from CA, San Román from NY), the duo start their journey as HEIRSOUND with a colorful six-song debut EP titled Merge. First appearing on the public radar in October '15 with the single "Do It Over", the team's new sound, & grassroots fan base became clear following a few months of visual artwork posts/teasers. Shortly after the release of "Do It Over," the band dropped a new track titled "My Own." HEIRSOUND is a duo who let you into their own world sonically as well as visually. Always working together closely, Dane & Alexa are set to release their debut EP on 8/5/2016 while continuing to showcase their live performance in as many places around the world as possible. Merge EP was recorded at VUDU Studio, produced and mixed by Mike Watts, engineered by Frank Mitaritonna, Tom Happel & Mike Watts, and mastered by Joe LaPorta.
