Originating as a solo effort, Jacob Rubiani recruited Alex Cordova to join what would eventually form into Pop Alma. These two, with a few friends, compiled a few songs that would eventually become the debut EP, SOMA. Soon after completion, Chris Thompson and Harley Von Pierce completed the lineup. Their second effort, Tales of a Hopeless Romantic, is a first in many aspects. “ I’ve had my heart set on this project for the past couple of years, and I stand by each track. I always like to tell a story within the writing,” says Rubiani. This new project tells a tale of love, and love lost, through many different musical stylings. “Our first EP was a first taste of who we are as a band. This one is us showing off what we’re capable of and how by just coming together with our own music tastes, we can truly make something so breathtaking yet so dark at the same time,” says Thompson.
