Cellar Darling discuss working with Tommy Vetterli

Only 8 days left until Switzerland's new high-flyers CELLAR DARLING unleash their debut album »This Is The Sound«, promising some signature folky hurdy-gurdy tones, heavy riffs, powerful drumming and a unique voice from a dreamy otherworld. With their first single 'Black Moon' hitting almost 300.000 views within one month and 'Avalanche' being watched over 130.000 times in only 5 days, Anna Murphy, Merlin Sutter and Ivo Henzi prove the hype is real and that the fans welcomed them back with open arms after their split with ELUVEITIE. CELLAR DARLING are here to stay and now unveil their fourth and last album trailer before the release of their highly anticipated debut record, out on June 30th.
