________________________________________________
WALLGRIN is the experimental art-pop project of Vancouver-based composer, vocalist and violinist Tegan Wahlgren. Drawing from a background in Celtic fiddle and choral singing, Wallgrin’s sound moves between lush string-based orchestration, beat-driven pop and ornate vocal arrangements After completing a degree in electroacoustic music composition, Wallgrin’s songwriting defined itself: pop-adjacent but deviant, never afraid to experiment.
From their 2018 debut 'Bird/Alien', to their most recent album 'Yet Again The Wheel Turns', Wallgrin’s world building has always revolved around fantastical and mythological imagery. Called “an innovative artist who is just starting to flex their myriad skills and talents” by CBC Music, and a songwriter who “measures up to standards set by art-pop visionaries like Björk and Kate Bush" (Northern Transmissions), their spirited and raw live performances have led them to perform at Iceland Airwaves, The Great Escape, Tallinn Music Week, and FOCUS Wales.
Elbow Kiss is an experimental folk project by Em Boreen. They are based in lekwungen territory (Victoria BC Canada). Humbly drawing inspiration from classic country and folk, as well as modern folk, indie and pop. Em plucks guitar, harp, and heart strings, gently dredging up deep seeds of yearning, nostalgia, heartbreak. Love songs to ghosts.
