Spencer Krug
https://pronouncedkroog.bandcamp.com/
After fifteen years of writing and performing with projects like Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown, Moonface, Swan Lake, and Frog eyes, this prolific artist has decided to release and tour the music he makes under his own name - Spencer Krug. First gaining attention in the mid 2000s as co-leader of Montreal's rock’n’roll Wolf Parade, then soon after as the voice and mind behind the chaotic Sunset Rubdown, Krug eventually used the now defunct Moonface as an outlet for his more experimental and sporadic solo material. And while he still plays with both Wolf Parade and Sunset Rubdown, there remains in him a need to express something less rock-oriented, something more quiet and introverted. So, returning to his first and favorite instrument, the piano, Krug has ventured back into his own fantastic world of pseudo-classical balladeering; poetic lyricism laced with twisted pop sensibility and jazz mimicry. Using this template, he now releases solo work on his own label, Pronounced Kroog, and tours a variety of new and old material as Spencer Krug.

elbow kiss is an experimental folk project weaving tradition into green newness. They draw inspiration from classic country and folk, as well as contemporary indie and pop. Elbow Kiss plucks guitar, harp, and heart strings, gently dredging up deep seeds of yearning, nostalgia, heartbreak. Their warbling voice disperses deep-seated emotion into dreamy stories and reveries. Love songs to ghosts, alive and otherwise. They also appear on vocals in dream punk band, Ghost Darling.
