Paste Studio “On The Road” recently paid a visit to Ilegal Mezcal in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, on a sunny day full of music and adult beverages on the East River. Cults joined us during the lead up to their new record To The Ghosts, which dropped earlier today. They played two new songs and a fan favorite during their Paste Session, check ’em all out below.
Full Session
Cults’ Brian Oblivion and Madeline Follin had plenty of time to write and record To The Ghosts between the pandemic era and today, and they leaned hard into the freedom that the lack of time constraints afforded.
