Folk duo Haunted Like Human – Dale Chapman (they/them) and Cody Clark (he/him) – have released their second single, “Family Name.” “Family Name” is a winsome folk song about the pressure to conform to tradition.
It follows “Married In Savannah,” a bittersweet folk song about watching someone close to you change.
Both will be available on their forthcoming album American Mythology, a shapely set of songs that borrow from universal lore in order to reveal intimate truths. Haunted Like Human write songs like novelists write their books, using careful detail and well-shaped characters to tell even the heaviest of stories.
American Mythology will be released independently on October 17th, 2025.
It’s been four years since the release of 2021’s Tall Tales & Fables, driven by the success of singles “Ohio” (featured on Spotify’s “Indie Bluegrass” playlist in October 2021) and “Run Devil Run,” which recently had a viral TikTok moment, catapulting the song to one million + streams.
