"Say When" out NOW & Polaris Shortlist
Hello love,
This big ol’ summer bash single is OUT NOW. It’s about the listless feeling of waiting, and it may be the most bombastic song I’ve ever released. I hope you will listen to it very loud and jump around. Here’s a fun lyric video:
More good news! Being Somewhere has been shortlisted for the Polaris Music Prize, which celebrates “Canadian music albums of distinction… without regard to musical genre or commercial popularity.” - the shortlist is deadly and the winner will be announced at the gala Sept 19th. Note that fellow shortlist’er Aysanabee will be supporting much of our Going Somewhere tour (scroll to the bottom for dates).
Alvvays – Blue Rev
Aysanabee – Watin
Begonia – Powder Blue
Daniel Caesar – Never Enough
Feist – Multitudes
Debby Friday – Good Luck
Gayance – Masquerade
Dan Mangan – Being Somewhere
The Sadies – Colder Streams
Snotty Nose Rez Kids – I’m Good, HBU?
I’ve added a few solo Ontario shows this August in Windermere and Peterborough! Bring a blanket and I’ll bring the bummer jams.
Thank you for your eyes and your ears.
