Today Guelph, Ontario hell-raisers BONNIE TRASH release their new album, ‘Mourning You’ via Hand Drawn Dracula. Alongside the album release, they have also shared a new video for “Poison Kiss“.
Bonnie Trash is the project of twin sisters Emmalia & Sarafina Bortolon-Vettor, wedding post-punk’s steely-eyed austerity to goth rock’s brooding grandeur. A lifelong project christened in 2017 with the release of ‘Ezzelini’s Dead’, the band’s debut EP which found the pair mining the Trevisan dialect and archaic Italian folklore of their heritage to grisly effect. Where their first full length, ‘Malocchio’ (2022), shrouded Bonnie Trash’s nightmares in dusky dreamlike reverb, ‘Mourning You’ is vivid and immediate. Emboldened by the addition of Emma Howarth-Withers on bass and Dana Bellamy on drums – whose thunderous rhythms sharpened 2024’s ‘My Love Remains the Same’ EP into a fine-edged blade – ‘Mourning You’ is less a post-mortem fantasia than a sudden, swift dagger to the heart.

ROBERT ASCROFT enlists Kid Congo Powers (The Cramps, Gun Club, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds) on his latest single, “Devil Opens The Door,” from his upcoming new album Echo Still Remains out February 14th via Hand Drawn Dracula Records.
On Echo Still Remains Ascroft draws from a diverse array of talented friends, curating a mesmerizing ensemble of vocal performances from Christopher Owens (Girls), Britta Phillips (Luna, Dean & Britta), Tess Parks, Ruth Radelet (Chromatics), Guy Blakeslee (The Entrance Band), Ora Cogan and Zumi Rosow (Black Lips).
On the track, Kid Congo Powers shares, “”Devil Opens The Door” is a swampy, gritty groove courtesy of my friend Robert Ascroft’s wicked songwriting and guitar playing. For my vocal I let loose with Devilish screams that would make even the underworld blush, while Roger Brogan’s primal drumbeat keeps your hips moving underneath. In the video directed by Robert, I channel my inner televangelist, preaching fire and brimstone about the dangers lurking on your TV screen. It’s loud, raw, and just naughty enough—exactly how rock ’n’ roll is meant to be.”
The album takes on a further rich and dynamic sound with the recording contributions of Grammy Award winning audio engineer Ted Young (Rolling Stones, Kurt Vile, Sonic Youth), the mixing of Larry Crane (Elliott Smith, The Shins, She & Him), and mastering by Josh Bonati (Mac DeMarco, Wild Nothing, Slowdive).

BONNIE TRASH share new single and video for “Hellmouth,” taken from their forthcoming album, Mourning You, set for release on February 28th on Hand Drawn Dracula.
Following previous single, “Veil of Greed”, today Bonnie Trash (twins Emmalia & Sarafina Bortolon-Vettor) share the howling, urgent new track “Hellmouth” – a song that evokes the gnarled claw of remorse gripping you in twilight’s terror. “I see you in my dreams every night,” Sarafina intones. Were it not for Emmalia’s blown-out Stratocaster, you might mistake those words for the chorus of an old doo-wop standard. The track launches off as a woozy siren song, before pummelling you with anthemic power chords for Sarafina’s self lacerating chorus: “Drag me to hell and back I go.”

BONNIE TRASH announce details of their new album, ‘Mourning You’, which is set for release on February 28th on Hand Drawn Dracula. Along with the announcement they have shared the first single and video from the album, entitled “Veil of Greed”.
Bonnie Trash is the project of twin sisters Emmalia & Sarafina Bortolon-Vettor, wedding post-punk’s steely-eyed austerity to goth rock’s brooding grandeur. Emboldened by the addition of Emma Howarth-Withers on bass and Dana Bellamy on drums – whose thunderous rhythms sharpened 2024’s ‘My Love Remains the Same’ EP into a fine-edged blade – ‘Mourning You’ is less a post-mortem fantasia than a sudden, swift dagger to the heart. This is sorrow not as a lingering bruise, but a gushing wound.
Bonnie Trash unveil their new project with this first single “Veil of Greed”. Emmalia’s gripping and unyielding guitar riff with all the icy malice of Nine Inch Nails’ Pretty Hate Machine introduces the urgency of the uncomfortably ordinary horror story that unfurls across the record. The song’s gruesome imagery – feasting on hearts with rotten teeth – finds Sarafina worshipping at the altar of her agony. “I bow down before you and I know / You feed.”
‘Mourning You’ is out February 28, 2025 on Hand Drawn Dracula Records. In mourning, all is lost.

With “Where Did You Go” vocalist and actress Britta Phillips (Luna, Dean & Britta) channels the allure of 1960s Film Noir with the dark and surreal beauty of David Lynch’s Lost Highway in sound and cinema. The track also boasts Ascroft’s ethereal guitar interplay with Roger Brogan’s rhythmic mode drumming to conjure a haunting vintage charm with a whip-smart modern allure.

Canada-born, London-based singer-songwriter TESS PARKS‘ recently released her third solo album, ‘Pomegranate’, via Hand Drawn Dracula and is today sharing a video for “Running Home To Sing”.
On the video, Tess Parks said “I guess subconsciously, through working with Joe Bressler on this video and his interpretation of the lyrics, this song is about anything you feel an unhealthy attachment to, and having the courage to change the things that you can and finding the inner strength to set yourself free. There is such a happier life waiting for you. The things that are right for you will remain, but the right people and the right circumstances will always reveal themselves once you make the space. I promise you. Thank you for all the love for this album so far – it means a lot a lot.”
Written and recorded between London, Toronto and Los Angeles, Pomegranate finds Parks teaming up with long-term bandmember and close collaborator Ruari Meehan, who assumes production duties here and co-mixed the album alongside GRAMMY-nominated engineer Mikko Gordon (The Smile, Gaz Coombes, Arcade Fire). Where ‘Dancing’ retained a fair measure of bedroom-demo charm, on ‘Pomegranate‘ the canvas is bigger, with Meehan’s arrangements stretching all the way to the horizon.

ROBERT ASCROFT AND CHRISTOPHER OWENS // SHOULD’VE STAYED IN BED (VIDEO) EXCLAIM, AUSTIN TOWNHALL, BROOKLYN VEGAN, STEREOGUM
NEWSROBERT ASCROFT and Christopher Owens (of Girls) release the latest single, “Should’ve Stayed in Bed” today from upcoming album Echo Still Remains, out February 14th via Hand Drawn Dracula Records.
Ascroft draws from a diverse array of talented friends on Echo Still Remains , curating an ensemble of vocal performances from Christopher Owens (Girls), Britta Phillips (Luna, Dean & Britta), Tess Parks, Ruth Radelet (Chromatics), Guy Blakeslee (The Entrance Band), Ora Cogan and Zumi Rosow (Black Lips).
“Arriving alongside a self-directed music video, the David Lynch-inspired effort features Christopher Owens, who last year released I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair. The track harnesses the easier-going tendencies of Lou Reed and Nick Cave, with synths twinkling above sparse, melancholic guitar. Owens also appears on the closing track On the Run.” – EXCLAIM
The album takes on a further rich and dynamic sound with the recording contributions of Grammy Award winning audio engineer Ted Young (Rolling Stones, Kurt Vile, Sonic Youth), the mixing of Larry Crane (Elliott Smith, The Shins, She & Him), and mastering by Josh Bonati (Mac DeMarco, Wild Nothing, Slowdive).
Emerging as a prominent photographer in the 2000s, Ascroft forged his path through collaborations with luminaries of the Oscars, Grammys, Tonys, and Emmys from Cate Blanchett, Ryan Gosling, to The Killers, Mark Ronson and A$AP Rocky. With an innate ability to capture the essence of his subjects through his camera lens, he redefines photography, infusing it with depth, emotion, and narrative. A classically trained guitarist turned music producer, Ascroft weaves intricate melodies and evocative songwriting with cinematic narratives.

NEWSROBERT ASCROFT enlists Kid Congo Powers (The Cramps, Gun Club, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds) on his latest single, “Devil Opens The Door,” from his upcoming new album Echo Still Remains out February 14th via Hand Drawn Dracula Records.
On Echo Still Remains Ascroft draws from a diverse array of talented friends, curating a mesmerizing ensemble of vocal performances from Christopher Owens (Girls), Britta Phillips (Luna, Dean & Britta), Tess Parks, Ruth Radelet (Chromatics), Guy Blakeslee (The Entrance Band), Ora Cogan and Zumi Rosow (Black Lips).
On the track, Kid Congo Powers shares, “”Devil Opens The Door” is a swampy, gritty groove courtesy of my friend Robert Ascroft’s wicked songwriting and guitar playing. For my vocal I let loose with Devilish screams that would make even the underworld blush, while Roger Brogan’s primal drumbeat keeps your hips moving underneath. In the video directed by Robert, I channel my inner televangelist, preaching fire and brimstone about the dangers lurking on your TV screen. It’s loud, raw, and just naughty enough—exactly how rock ’n’ roll is meant to be.”

BONNIE TRASH // HELLMOUTH (VIDEO) BACKSEAT MAFIA, PUNKNEWS, EXCLAIM! MAGAZINE, BANGER TV
NEWSBONNIE TRASH share new single and video for “Hellmouth,” taken from their forthcoming album, Mourning You, set for release on February 28th on Hand Drawn Dracula.
Following previous single, “Veil of Greed”, today Bonnie Trash (twins Emmalia & Sarafina Bortolon-Vettor) share the howling, urgent new track “Hellmouth” – a song that evokes the gnarled claw of remorse gripping you in twilight’s terror. “I see you in my dreams every night,” Sarafina intones. Were it not for Emmalia’s blown-out Stratocaster, you might mistake those words for the chorus of an old doo-wop standard. The track launches off as a woozy siren song, before pummelling you with anthemic power chords for Sarafina’s self lacerating chorus: “Drag me to hell and back I go.”

BONNIE TRASH // VEIL OF GREED (VIDEO) ANNOUNCE MOURNING YOU (ALBUM) PUNKNEWS, EXCLAIM, BROOKLYN VEGAN
NEWSBONNIE TRASH announce details of their new album, ‘Mourning You’, which is set for release on February 28th on Hand Drawn Dracula. Along with the announcement they have shared the first single and video from the album, entitled “Veil of Greed”.
Bonnie Trash is the project of twin sisters Emmalia & Sarafina Bortolon-Vettor, wedding post-punk’s steely-eyed austerity to goth rock’s brooding grandeur. Emboldened by the addition of Emma Howarth-Withers on bass and Dana Bellamy on drums – whose thunderous rhythms sharpened 2024’s ‘My Love Remains the Same’ EP into a fine-edged blade – ‘Mourning You’ is less a post-mortem fantasia than a sudden, swift dagger to the heart. This is sorrow not as a lingering bruise, but a gushing wound.
Bonnie Trash unveil their new project with this first single “Veil of Greed”. Emmalia’s gripping and unyielding guitar riff with all the icy malice of Nine Inch Nails’ Pretty Hate Machine introduces the urgency of the uncomfortably ordinary horror story that unfurls across the record. The song’s gruesome imagery – feasting on hearts with rotten teeth – finds Sarafina worshipping at the altar of her agony. “I bow down before you and I know / You feed.”
‘Mourning You’ is out February 28, 2025 on Hand Drawn Dracula Records. In mourning, all is lost.

TESS PARKS // RUNNING HOME TO SING (VIDEO) // PERFORMS AT MARK LANEGAN TRIBUTE (DEC 5) ALONGSIDE DAVE GAHAN, JOSH HOMME, CHRISSIE HYNDE, BOBBY GILLESPIE AND MORE // NME, BROOKLYN VEGAN, BBC6 MUSIC
NEWSCanada-born, London-based singer-songwriter TESS PARKS‘ recently released her third solo album, ‘Pomegranate’, via Hand Drawn Dracula and is today sharing a video for “Running Home To Sing”.
On the video, Tess Parks said “I guess subconsciously, through working with Joe Bressler on this video and his interpretation of the lyrics, this song is about anything you feel an unhealthy attachment to, and having the courage to change the things that you can and finding the inner strength to set yourself free. There is such a happier life waiting for you. The things that are right for you will remain, but the right people and the right circumstances will always reveal themselves once you make the space. I promise you. Thank you for all the love for this album so far – it means a lot a lot.”
Written and recorded between London, Toronto and Los Angeles, Pomegranate finds Parks teaming up with long-term bandmember and close collaborator Ruari Meehan, who assumes production duties here and co-mixed the album alongside GRAMMY-nominated engineer Mikko Gordon (The Smile, Gaz Coombes, Arcade Fire). Where ‘Dancing’ retained a fair measure of bedroom-demo charm, on ‘Pomegranate‘ the canvas is bigger, with Meehan’s arrangements stretching all the way to the horizon.
