Praise for Yore:
“A tantalising introduction to this textural delight – ‘Bon Mot’ is simply scratching the surface of what’s suggested from Yore” - So Young Magazine
“Following on from previous single 'Bon Mot' - which saw multi-instrumentalist and producer Callum Brown channelling a more grungy, slackerpop vibe - his newest track is a warm, dreamy delight, with Rakel's vocals floating high into the ether.” - DIY
“With vocals from Dream Wife’s Rakel Mjöll Leifsdóttir, ‘Hawing’ spirals between enchanted choruses and quiet verses, taking on flowing instrumentals and rising harmonies.” - Little Dose Of Indie
With support from BBC Radio 1’s Jack Saunders, NME, So Young, DIY, DORK, and more already, Yore is just two weeks away from releasing his debut self-titled album via FLAT FIVE Records (4th December).
Known for playing with Mint Field, Josefin Ohrn, and Ulrika Spacek, multi-instrumentalist and producer Callum Brown is well on his way to adding this new project to his long list of musical accomplishments.
Today, Yore shares new track ‘Sally Out’ which features MELLAH and Nuha Ruby Ra. It was created to flow and meander as it pleased and Yore kept tweaking and adding new parts, throwing everything at it until it resulted in unintentional shoegaze and dub. He enlisted the help of close friends MELLAH and Nuha Ruby Ra for an effortless finish.
Living together in the Hackney Wick art space known as Vicious Collective, Callum worked with visual artist Andrew Raynor once again for the VHS edited video. The collaboration aspect of the album really comes through on ‘Sally Out’ as his closeness with MELLAH and Nuha make for a fun and effortless, filmed jam session between friends.
Callum said the below on ‘Sally Out’;
"I wanted to make a track that was free to flow & meander without having to follow a traditional song structure. I added multiple layers of instrumentation that culminated into a dense & expansive palette - touching on the ‘wall of sound’ aesthetic.
Liam (Mellah) recorded his part first; processing his vocals with delays & intricate chops. Then Nuha (my housemate) wrote a perfect counterpart for the outro - the final piece of the puzzle!
I tracked two entwining drum parts with Syd at Wilton Way Studios which brought the song to a chaotic climax. It’s one of my favourite tracks on the record & the perfect opener for the album."

About Yore:
Living in the Hackney wick art space known as Vicious Collective, Callum has managed to assemble an eclectic mix of guest artists to feature on the record including Mellah, Nuha Ruby Ra, Black Gold Buffalo, Rakel Leifsdottir of Dream Wife, Katie Drew of White Flowers, Panacea, Rusalka, and Milan Monk of Haha Sounds Collective.
The album is a celebration of indie collaboration akin to Broken Social Scene, the "cut and paste" aesthetic of Unkle and King Krule, as well as the dream-like nostalgia of Deerhunter and Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Created over several months in Hackney's Wilton Way Studios, Callum enlisted the help of Ulrika Spacek's Syd Kemp (Thurston Moore, Vanishing Twin, Spiritualised) to co-produce and record the 10 track album, resulting in a self-titled LP that opens with a wall of shoegaze ascending synths, and closes on a fever dream of delayed guitars and ethereal vocals; the perfect disparate soundtrack to the tumultuous times we live in.
