About Jake and the Kid:
Jake and the kid is a 4-piece alternative band from Regina, Saskatchewan. Formed in 2020 during the pandemic, the group has been working towards perfecting their craft since then. The group won the SaskMusic album of the year award in 2023 for their EP "Baby Bro" as a 7-piece band, which contains lyrics involving adolescence and paints them over a canvas of lo-fi folk, indie, alternative, and shoegaze influences. Since then, the band has been working on reforming their lineup as a 4-person band and rethinking their approach to songwriting so their work can reach new heights. Now, Jake and the Kid is ready to debut their first full-length album that falls into genres similar to their last EP, but adds new post-rock and experimental elements, as well as having a more refined sound. Essentially, as a whole work, their new album and live set seeks to evoke emotion and intrigue in listeners through different songs involving dynamic changes, varied track lengths, thick and thin textural changes, and sticky songwriting. The first single from the album "Juniper" is out on all platforms now, and the band has two more singles slated to release in October before the album arrives in full in November.
About Library Voices:
Someone once said “Harry Truman, Doris Day, Red China, Johnnie Ray South Pacific, Walter Winchell, Joe DiMaggio Joe McCarthy, Richard Nixon, Studebaker, television North Korea, South Korea, Marilyn Monroe”
So yeah Library Voices is still a band, playing and creating indie rock regularly now that everyone’s kids are no longer toddlers. “Indie” used to be a derogatory term for rock bands around the 2010s, synonymous with v-neck t-shirts and Helvetica Black font. Recently it’s transmuted back into a fairly respectable way to describe bands. Still feels a bit weird for some of us to use though.
About The Pxrtals:
Imagine the sound of Roy Orbison’s and Grace Slick’s spirits trekking an ageless forest outside of spacetime soundtracked in 60s’ psychedelic and 90s’ alternative, and you will find The Pxrtals (said “portals”) …
The ‘x’ denotes the band’s spectrum-spanning, mysterious sound, where each song transports the listener through myriad portals, exploring everywhere from enigmatic, afternoon electronica, to mind-bending, midnite rock n' roll, to delicate early-morning folk.
Now with Berlin-based Ghost Palace Records (co-operated by celebrated filmmaker Wim Wenders), The Pxrtals have recently performed at Ness Creek, Gateway, Calgary’s BIG Winter Classic, La Fête Fransaskoise in Pike Lake, Saskatchewan, and Tallinn Music Week in Estonia. In 2021, The Pxrtals were nominated for Breakout West’s ‘Francophone Artist of the Year’. Lee Laborde, Senior Vice-President of AEG Booking, deemed The Pxrtals’ One Night album “a magnificent opus.”
