Santah’s new, currently untitled second LP is now available for preorder, but not in the way you’d expect. You can put down ten bucks toward a digital download if you like, or you can shell out $25 for the vinyl edition. Or you can purchase a slot in a fermentation class taught by Vivian McConnell, who sings and plays guitar in the psych-rock band alongside her brother, Stanton. The members of Santah are doing it all themselves this time around: via a PledgeMusic campaign, they’ve already funded the production of the record, which arrives in May. They’re also donating 5 percent of all proceeds to CeaseFire, a nonprofit geared at ending gun violence in Chicago.

Santah’s upcoming tour starts in Milwaukee and takes them to the Empty Bottle, where they’ll play with Jaime Rojo on March 9. Until then, hear “Sunkeeper” below, and keep an eye out for more from Santah in the months to come.
