Voxtrot

Voxtrot first captured global attention in the 2000s blog era with a pair of beloved EPs (Raised By Wolves and Mothers, Sisters, Daughters & Wives), released on their own Cult Hero Records label. That momentum carried into 2006’s Your Biggest Fan EP, which debuted at #3 on the Billboard Hot Singles Sales chart, and their 2007 self-titled full-length on Playlouder/Beggars, which reached #14 on Billboard’s Heatseekers. Their rise was swift, their impact immediate, and their disbandment in 2010 left a devoted audience to keep the music alive. Over the following decade, that audience only grew—proof that Voxtrot’s songs had outlived the moment that birthed them. Now, after more than a decade apart, Voxtrot has reconvened with a renewed sense of purpose. Dreamers in Exile, coming via Cult Hero, is the band’s first full-length in nearly twenty years. Written and self-recorded in Texas at bassist Jason Chronis’ Haunted Air Studio, and mixed by Dean Reid (Lana Del Rey, James Blake, The Black Keys), the album captures a group both wiser and bolder. Where the early records chronicled the wide-eyed tumult of youth, Dreamers in Exile is an album of reckoning and renewal, tracing the passage of time, the distance between past and present, and the hope of connection that endures through it all. It is at once a continuation and a reinvention—the sound of Voxtrot returning not to reclaim their legacy, but to expand it.
