POLIÇA
“Lay Your Cards Out” (mp3)
from “Give You The Ghost”
(Totally Gross National Product / POLIÇA)
After collaborating in the studio and live on their most recent project (GAYNGS), it became apparent to vocalist Channy Leaneach (formerly Casselle) and producer Ryan Olson that they should form a collective of their own. Olson’s pop sensibilities and electronic adventurism would prove to be the perfect vehicle for Channy’s recent evolution from a roots-folk band vocalist to a R&B-bred performer. Thus, POLIÇA was born.
In June of 2011 the two began writing the songs that make up POLIÇA’s debut, Give You The Ghost. Initially the tracks were arranged with Olson’s beats and sequences, leaving room for Channy to apply her dynamic experimentation. Playing with vocal processing and synthesized textures, her additions fit perfectly into the lush, electronic sound-scape of Olson’s arrangements.
