JULIANA RIOLINO'S ECHO IN THE DUST TOUR — LIVE AT MILLS HARDWARE!
Growth takes time, and it’s a dirty, fraught journey. We may decide one day who we want to be but it takes an abundance of effort to get there. Consider, for a moment, flora: each year, we tend to seeds and bulbs plunged into cold, hard ground. Then each spring, we till, nourish, and water, waiting for greenery to grow and appear. There’s hope that this work leads us to, say, lush peony bushes, draped and slunk over under the weight of their own elegance. Something beautiful, something special after all of that hard work. And so, we endure the labour of the transition that got us there. This liminal space of transformation is where we find singer-songwriter Julianna Riolino on her sophomore record, Echo In The Dust. The album arrives October 24, 2025 from Riolino’s own label, MoonWhistle Records, unfurling like a once tight bud into a languid blossom. By Riolino’s own admission, Echo In The Dust is markedly different from her debut, All Blue, released in 2022. She breathes new confidence into her performance—the sort that burns from belly to brain, roaring from her throat but landing sweetly on our ears. The Southern Ontario musician is soft as she is tough on these songs; seeing the benefit of laying down armour and splitting her heart open so that we may get a glimpse of our own. The songs on the record consider relationships of all sorts as the foundation for her awakening into a different creative self and person in this world; working through loss, grief, habits, and decisions she once made, seeking clarity in the past before leaving it there to move forward. The sentiment “you don’t know where you’re going until you know where you’ve been” rings especially true on this album. What makes Riolino a compelling performer and songwriter on this record, and in her career, is how she inhabits past sensations and feelings, reliving and reviving them again to release. While a lot of these experiences are composites and memories, stitched together into 11 tracks, the impressions are of a real, vivid journey through an immense experience of rediscovery toward intuitive knowing. Riolino needed to unravel before she could clarify who she is now and who she’ll be next, and the result is Echo In the Dust, a beautiful sonic result of what it’s like to stay out of one’s own way.
