Written during a 2021 retreat to the remote coastal Oregon town of Yachats,\u00a0Deb Demure\u00a0leaned into the neo-psychedelic resonance of a uniquely bowl-shaped 12-string Ovation acoustic\/electric\u00a0guitar. After early morning hikes in the rain, Deb would record ambient guitar experiments the rest of the day, tapping into \u201cflow states,\u201d letting the sound lead the way.\u00a0These sessions were then refined or recreated, and later elevated further with key collaborations by\u00a0Rachel Goswell (Slowdive),\u00a0Justin Meldal-Johnson (Beck, M83, Air), and\u00a0Ben Greenberg (Uniform,\u00a0Circular Ruin Studio).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018An Object In Motion\u2019\u00a0is true to its title, capturing the chrysalis moment of an artist evolving, reborn and untethered, silhouetted against an open horizon. It\u00a0presents a showcase of potential futures from Drab\u2019s evolving domain, their sound poised to bloom at the precipice of transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See\u00a0Drab Majesty\u00a0at Oblivion Access Festival (Austin, TX)\u00a0on June 17th\u00a0and pre-order\u00a0\u2018An Object In Motion\u2019\u00a0ahead of its\u00a0August 25\u00a0release date\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/anotherside.cmail20.com\/t\/y-l-pttddkt-itjldhidjy-i\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i3.cmail20.com\/ei\/y\/7C\/9F1\/531\/015843\/csfinal\/DAIS205_digital_artwork-9900000000079e3c.jpg\" alt=\"Drab Majesty An Object In Motion cover artwork\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018<strong>An Object In Motion\u2019\u00a0track listing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Vanity (ft.
