The pairing of ex-Secret Machines guitarist Ben Curtis with twins Alejandra and Claudia Deheza of On!Air!Library! have signed to Ghostly International, who will issue their debut LP, Alpinisms on October 28. Alpinisms will be preceded by a single for "Half Asleep" on September 16. Due on 7" and digital download, it'll be backed with non-album cut "Caldo".
