SINGING PRAISES: THE DEEP DARK WOODS COVER TUCKER ZIMMERMAN’S “HANGIN’ LOOSE”
/in NEWS /by SarahThe Deep Dark Woods’ Ryan Boldt pays tribute to a songwriting hero in his take on Tucker Zimmerman’s “Hangin’ Loose.” Updated with psychedelic keys and Boldt’s wavering vocals, this new version casts a contemporary yet somber light on the traditional original, creating an eerie sense of solitude in true Deep Dark Woods fashion.

WAKE UP! THE DEAD SOUTH RELEASE NEW VIDEO FOR “CHOP SUEY” WITH COMPANION EPS
/in NEWS /by SarahThe Dead South have released Easy Listening for Jerks, Parts 1 & 2. While these two collections of songs come from vastly different genres, they’re united both in their themes of struggle and adversity, and by the band’s telltale bluegrass blueprint.
To further satisfy your senses, the band has released a new video for “Chop Suey.” Check out the video below to watch their take on the jittery System of a Down original.
TRUE COLOURS: SKYE WALLACE RELEASES NEW VIDEO FOR “TRUTH BE TOLD”
/in NEWS /by SarahIn her new video for “Truth Be Told,” the song’s theme of radical self-acceptance comes to life as Skye Wallace rocks out in a kaleidoscope of colourful identities, each one fitting like a glove. It takes guts to embrace who you are, flaws and all.
TANYA TAGAQ RELEASES “COLONIZER” VIDEO
/in NEWS /by SarahDonate to the Indian Residential School Survivors Society HERE
“Tagaq boldly uses her place in the country’s cultural firmament to challenge its very foundation.” – Pitchfork
Listen to Tagaq’s full interview on NPR’s Morning Edition here
“Everyone is responsible for the system that is in place right now; those who benefit from the genocide of Indigenous people are still guilty.” – as told to Line of Best Fit
Tanya Tagaq, whose new album Tongues arrived last week, delivers a new video for “Colonizer,” which witnesses the destruction of symbols and perpetrators of the residential school system. Unrelenting and direct, “Colonizer” is a song that distills 500 years of settler, church and government wrongdoing into 4 words: Oh. You’re. Guilty. Colonizer.
SOS: JULY TALK RELEASE NEW MUSIC VIDEO FOR “I AM WATER”
/in NEWS /by SarahAre you prepared? JULY TALK have released their new video for “I Am Water,” which casts the band in an overgrown, over-stocked home before voyaging through a forest clad in emergency ponchos. When it comes to JULY TALK, always expect the unexpected.
Keep calm and check out the video, produced by Danuta (JULY TALK’s Leah Fay and Peter Dreimanis).
EAT YOUR MORALS: TANYA TAGAQ RELEASES NEW ALBUM ‘TONGUES’
/in NEWS /by SarahTanya Tagaq’s newest album, Tongues, enters deep chasms and dangerous spaces. Produced by Saul Williams and mixed by Gonjasufi, Tagaq’s Tongues speaks not to horrors and crisis, as previous Tagaq albums wordlessly, powerfully encircled, but directly of these things.
Tongues is a manual for inner and outer revolution, a victory over those who take without consent.
TO BE HONEST: SKYE WALLACE RELEASES NEW SINGLE “TRUTH BE TOLD”
/in NEWS /by SarahSkye Wallace makes her Six Shooter debut with her new single, “Truth Be Told,” in which she holds a mirror to all the past versions of herself and reflects on how each imperfect fragment is a valuable piece worthy of love. Set against a backdrop of psychedelic rock vibes, “Truth Be Told” is a journey through Wallace’s psyche as she studies the ways in which each awkward flaw is an invitation to embrace the person she’s become. Sometimes it takes a good hard look in the mirror to see ourselves clearly.
