Witch Post, the duo of Alaska Reid and Dylan Fraser, have announced their third EP, Butterfly, due out March 20 via Partisan (their first for the label). “Butterfly is the spring thaw after Beast,” they say. “Country fair rides, angels and pixies, talismans, an impulsive fling in a small town, coyotes, fawns – we wanted to contrast the wintry rock of Beast and take listeners on a sonic road trip of different perspectives and in-between places.” See the cover art and tracklist below.

They’ve shared a new single, “Worry Angel,” where Fraser and Reid’s voices intertwine around each other in sinuous harmonies. They say the song is “a lucky keychain you can’t go anywhere without. It’s a python that curls around your neck and makes you into a bitch. It’s twisted superstition that guides your everyday. It’s a pixie taunting you every time you close your eyes. It’s crows that caw on your walk home. It’s a sense of being watched. It’s sweaty palms. It’s not real. We’re waiting on angels. It’s all real and sometimes it’s all just because we feel alone.” Watch the video, directed by Lara Laeverenz and Dylan Fraser, below.
