Wesley Gonzalez

'Red Pilled & Based' is the new single by Wesley Gonzalez his first solo outing since 2024's Wax Limousine, recorded and produced by Wesley Gonzalez at home studio. 'Red Pilled & Based' see's Gonzalez write from the mindset of a looksmaxxer, taking anabolic steroids and smashing his own face in to be more appealing to the opposite sex, consuming right wing content hellbent on programming him to believe he is of the greater gender.

Musically Wesley has strayed from the maximalist art-pop of previous solo albums and kept things very simple mainly written on a small scale nylon string guitar with backing throughout from Gwen Reed on double bass and Callum Duffy on piano as well asThe Waeve's Graham Coxon and Rose Elinor Dougal. focusing on the song rather than focussing on production. The instrumentation harks back to American singer-songwriters like Fred Neil, Karen Dalton and Judee Sill whilst juxtaposing lyrical influence from the likes of Vic Chesnutt, Mark E Smith and David Berman. Gonzalez focuses on writing that doesn't sacrifice reality for the sake of ease of listening, does not patronise the listener with saccharine whimsy and most importantly doesn’t write ANY songs about parenthood.

Dana Gavinski

Born in Vancouver to a Serbian family, but relocating to Montreal to attend university, Dana Gavanski originally planned to pursue a career in film. However, she shifted her attention back to music when her then ex-partner left her his guitar before moving to NYC.

In 2019, Dana signed with Full Time Hobby and released two 7" singles ("One By One", "Catch") and announced her debut album "Yesterday Is Gone", a co-production between Sam Gleason, Tunng's Mike Lindsay and Dana herself. The critically acclaimed album was released in March 2020, followed by an EP of covers titled "Wind Songs", released in August of the same year.

Dana's second album "When It Comes" was released in April 2022, followed by headline tours around UK, Europe and north America, and was followed by third album LATE SLAP, released in April 2024.

In the time since then, Dana has been busy working on new material. Returning back to her studio, this time around she took to writing songs on the upright piano - the products of which make up her March 2025 EP, Again Again.
