A Story Told Embraces “Mundane Magic”, Full Album Out Now and Ready to Satisfy Your Alt-Pop Needs
We’ve been keeping an eye on this band for quite some time now, almost to the point we didn’t think the album would grace itself in our hallowed DMs…yet we were wrong. On our latest peek into the alternative world we are checking out Mundane Magic, the latest from A Story Told. A Story Told originated in Charleston, West Virginia, an unlikely hub for alternative pop music. Their strong ties to the region have significantly influenced their work ethic and success. Despite their unusual location, the band independently produced and wrote every song since their debut album in 2016. Their music, rooted in personal expression, has resonated with a global audience, accumulating 25 million streams. The band’s sound has evolved while maintaining their original mission and ethos. They credit their achievements to their Appalachian origins, which foster a determined attitude. A Story Told has chosen to push their music independently with consistency, perseverance, and authenticity, rather than relying on a conventional path. This approach has led to their recognition and presence in various platforms, from Vans Warped Tour to NBC’s Sunday Night Football, earning praise for their infectious brilliance.
“Mundane Magic is the best way that I could possibly sum up this musical journey that the 3 of us have been on for years. A friend once told me that the industry is a pendulum. You leave relevancy as quickly as you found it. Mundane Magic is about the journey to arriving at this resolution of outlook. I’ve struggled with the band being a public measurement of my success. I’ve struggled with the thought that – maybe not everyone deserves your vulnerability. But to hell with that! As much as I’ve poured my life and difficult memories into A Story Told, it is 100% necessary for me me, and to our fans that I share the fact – that I’ve fucked those memories out of my life.” – Alex Chaney (Vocalist)
