This Friday, Sleeper’s Bell — the Chicago folk project fronted by librarian/vocalist Blaine Teppema and guitarist Evan Green — will release their debut album, Clover, via Fire Talk Records imprint Angel Tapes. Clover is over a decade in the making and has been teased through a “slow drip-feed” (For The Rabbits) of singles, earning Sleeper’s Bell praise from Paste, The Line of Best Fit, NPR Music, No Expectations, FLOOD and more. Today, Sleeper’s Bell present their new single, “Bad Word,” ahead of this Friday’s album release.
