Hello and welcome and sorry about the ads, which are out of my control. I hope you find what you’re looking for. Sign up for my newsletter to learn about new releases when they’re available, or get in touch: anar.e.badalov@gmail.com.

I’ve been releasing music since 2005, on an assortment of labels (Kill Rock Stars, Suicide Squeeze, Lokal Rekorc, Mi Amante, Own, Poli5, Tymbal Tapes) and on my own. It’s been described as “both ominous and amorous at once” and “intimately taut and emotionally wrought.” I make music alone under the New Dog moniker, but these days my primary outlets are Hourloupe, a collaboration with writer & artist Frank Menchaca, and ARANANAR. Most of my recordings are up to stream here. Most news I post here. I’m proud to have shared the stage with artists including Six Organs of Admittance, Angels of Light, Akron/Family, Murder by Death, Chad Vangaalen, Big Thief, Mi and L’au, David Bazan, Black Heart Procession, and Kristin Hersh.
