Premiere: Chic Chameleon - “Peppermint Halo”

Written By Jeff MacCallum

Chic Chameleon, the recording project of Edmonton’s Patrick Froese, has been churning out a series of expertly crafted dream-pop singles for the past two years. Those singles have received significant plays on Spotify, together racking up over a million listens! Today we are very excited to premiere a track called “Peppermint Halo” the sixth single released in the series which we expect will become an album later this year.

The new track, which is available everywhere March 20th, is an ethereal dream-pop tune boasting big guitar reverb and subtle fuzz, shimmering synths and Chic’s introspective lyrics meanderings within the mix as if bouncing between clouds of blissful instrumentation. It’s a testament to the incredible song craft Chic Chameleon has been delivering these past two years.

Enjoy “Peppermint Halo” below, support the artist by purchasing rather than streaming and keep your eyes out for Chic Chameleon on upcoming festival posters as the season is just around the corner.
