Gladie is the indie rock outfit led by Augusta Koch, who grew up in the Poconos and moved to Philadelphia after high school, fronting the beloved local punk trio Cayetana between 2011 to 2019. On the first Gladie album, 2020’s Safe Sins, Koch unpacked the feelings of grief and isolation that resulted from the group’s dissolution over introspective, lo-fi arrangements. It followed the 2018 Everyone Is Taking But You EP, a collaboration with multi-instrumentalist Matt Schimellfenig, to whom Koch is now engaged.
