St.Arnaud is the music of Ian (St.Arnaud), a project that balances buoyant, wry storytelling with roots and early indie influences, all wrapped in lively, danceable arrangements. Often described as “the goofy side of self-serious indie rock.” The collection is to be packaged into three deluxe singles, and then released as a self-titled album on Cordova Bay Records. Each of these deluxe singles is a motley crew of songs, packaged more around a mode of production than a particular genre or feeling. Steeped in the raucous and fun-loving 70s’ folkers and power poppers like Jonathan Richman and The Modern Lovers, the result is a larger and livelier interpretation that retains Ian’s penchant for pop hooks and sardonic lyrics.The album and its preceding EPs are a range of material including rock songs, more folk-oriented singer-songwriter songs, danceable rock songs, and emotional ballads. St.Arnaud has played with Basia Bulat, Reuben and the Dark, and Lucy Rose among countless others and has performed at stages across the world including The Great Escape, Reeperbahn, New Colossus Festival, FOCUS Wales, and Tallinn Music Week. St.Arnaud has been featured on Exclaim!, Folk Radio UK, Indie 88, CKUA, and the CBC Radio 3 top 10.
