DC-based indie soul band Oh He Dead has announced the arrival of their eagerly anticipated third studio album, Ugly, due via their own Wally Baba Records on Friday, August 23. Pre-orders are available now.
The “shadow side” and follow-up to last year’s acclaimed Pretty, Ugly is heralded by the release of the album’s provocative first single, “Strange Love,” available everywhere now. A blast of technicolor on a wave of sultry synths, the track is told from the POV of a sex worker who has fallen in love with her john.
“My favorite artists are still Sade, Kings of Leon, and Stevie Nicks,” says Oh He Dead frontwoman CJ Johnson. “Combined they have the rasp, the sexiness, and the storytelling. That is what I aim to be myself: a raspy, sexy, storyteller.” LISTEN TO “STRANGE LOVE” PRE-ORDER UGLY
“Strange Love” is one of the new songs Oh He Dead performs on their Audiotree performance which premieres today. The appearance also features two other songs off of the soon-to-be-released Ugly: “Is It My Love,” and “The Foreigner.” Audiotree called the performance “a firecracker explosion of euphoric pop, the likes of which you’ve never seen.”

Hailed by The Washington Post for their “infectious and soulful sound,” Oh He Dead will celebrate the impending arrival of Ugly with a busy live schedule that includes headline shows, festival appearances, and dates alongside The Dip. Highlights include a special hometown album release event set for Washington, DC’s The Atlantis on Friday, August 23. For complete details and ticket information, please visit www.ohhedead.com.
