Lil’ Golden Book

Princess Chelsea

Crystalline synths and glockenspiels create a haunted nursery rhyme world. Deadpan vocals deliver sharp, sardonic observations on modern life and loneliness.

May 1, 2011 · Lil' Chief Records

A cold, crystalline beauty masked by a playful, toy-like exterior and a sharp, cynical heart.

Moments Worth Listening For
the deadpan back-and-forth dialogue in Cigarette Duet that perfectly captures relationship friction
the hypnotic, repetitive glockenspiel melody in Monkey Eats Bananas that feels both cute and unsettling
the six-minute ambient drift of Goodnight Little Robot Child that transitions from a lullaby to a synth wash
