“I think the song of the year is “Ex-Lover” by Sam Weber. The guy’s a hell of a songwriter, great musician, great guitarist… he’s going to do big things” – Afie Jurvanen, Bahamas

“[Weber] is an expert tunesmith, brimming with addictive, adventurous and confident pieces. Infused with deep wit and wisdom, Weber’s output is truly impressive. His guitar work is also killer, full of nuance, soul and a truly unique voice.… We’ll be hearing a lot more from Weber in the coming years and, more than likely, decades” – Guitar Player

“Some guys can sing. Some guys can play guitar. Some guys can write songs. Some guys know their way around the recording studio. Then there are guys like Sam Weber.
[He] can do it all” – Tinnitist

Today marks the release of “Blackout”, the second single off of singer-songwriter Sam Weber’s upcoming third full-length, Everything Comes True, out October 25 via Sonic Unyon. The track is “a break-up song about feeling divided - between doing what feels right to me or what’s comfortable for someone else,” says Weber. “It’s about watching someone try and change who they are to make you happy. It’s about trying to have a deeper understanding of relationships and investing more – and about being afraid in relationships too.”

Expanding on the ambitious canvas of 2018’s New Agile Freedom EP, Everything Comes True is Weber’s most compelling release to date, one stacked with remarkable songs filled out by a remarkable range of talents whose gifts complement the artist's own considerable strengths. He reserves special thanks for L.A. producer Tyler Chester, who cared for the songs as if they were his own, remaining intensely mindful of the album's finer details as well as the fullness of its scope, despite a tight session window.

Industry insiders know Chester not just for his diverse production credits but also his work as a steady session hand on albums and tours by Joan Baez, Jackson Browne, Andrew Bird, Amy Helm, Hayes Carll, Christina Aguilera, and many others. The album’s stellar roster of personnel also includes Grammy-winning mastering engineer Gavin Lurssen, and Weber's longtime drummer/collaborator Marshall Wildman.

Weber boasts a relentless tour schedule, splitting most of his time between the road and the studio. He’ll be supporting labelmate Terra Lightfoot this fall before celebrating Everything Comes True with release shows in Toronto and Hamilton.

Last month, Reuben and the Dark, the spirited alt-folk outfit helmed by singer-songwriter Reuben Bullock, announced a new full-length album entitled un | love, out October 25 on Arts & Crafts. With that, the band released the first single “faultline” and the video, directed by Brock Mitchell, debuted last week. Today, Reuben and the Dark shares the new track “rising” – the melancholic but uplifting overture to un | love, with Reuben’s lonesome voice soon buoyed by exultant melodies.

Reuben explains how “rising” captures the spark of the new album:

“This is the first song on the album for a reason. It was the very first toe in the water... an early morning in Mexico… among the sounds of the jungle I started writing this song. As I was finishing, I could hear my bass player, Ian Jarvis, already carving out a sonic world in the makeshift studio we had made. This song was written with a cup of coffee and finished with a glass of mezcal. I took it from the sky. It was written and recorded within hours. It was the very beginning of what would become a deep dive into an ocean of songs - un | love. Recording for the sake of the song and nothing else. It is a journey. An exploration. I don’t think it even makes sense from a songwriting perspective, but it makes sense emotionally. It is waking up. It is looking out the window as scenery passes you by. It is the blink of an eye. An anthem of an open mind.”

The song captures life as it’s meant to be lived – in the moment. It is the past, present and future held close and let go all at once. The vast space and freewheeling pace of “rising” evokes the opposing forces of love and emptiness at play in un | love, at once free and constrained.

un | love is Reuben’s most honest and captivating album to date, opening a window into one of the most dramatic times in Bullock’s life. The spirited band’s third record – following 2018’s Arms of a Dream, and 2014’s debut Funeral Sky – tells Reuben’s story of endings and hope for the future. The forthcoming collection is a bare, cathartic exploration of life’s undeniable crossroads, and the fateful depths that await there. As Reuben sings on “rising”:

to fall in love 
and blow away
come what may
my mind is made

Produced by Reuben and the Dark with Marcus Paquin (The National, Timber Timbre, Local Natives) and Kevin Drew (of Broken Social Scene), un | love evokes the raw emotion of the songs with anthemic, atmospheric sound. In comparison to the polished songs of Arms of a Dream, the new album shows a drastic turn in Reuben’s ease as a writer and freedom as a recording artist. His voice is at once unbridled and fallible. Through the dense imagery of his poetry shines a light shot straight from Reuben’s soul.

Reuben and the Dark hit the road this month with a run of dates in Canada and will embark on a Winter Tour in 2020 beginning February 8. Full dates can be round below. The band has shared stages with the likes of Vance Joy, Serena Ryder, The Strumbellas, Boy & Bear, and The Paper Kites. Reuben and the Dark's music has been heard in Handmaid’s Tale, The HIghwaymen, A Million Little Things, American Gods, Grey’s Anatomy, Ray Donovan and more. Most recently, “Black Water” from Reuben’s debut album was featured in the long-anticipated trailer for Netflix’s El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.

MICAH ERENBERG CELEBRATES ALBUM RELEASE WITH NEW VIDEO

To celebrate today’s release of his new LP, Love Is Gonna Find You, Micah Erenberg is sharing the new video for album track “What Am I Doing Here”. The video “documents the time that I pulled over for some instant ramen at an intergalactic rest stop,” says Erenberg. “Alien chickens, unlimited art supplies, a pool table with only 3s, 6s and 9s? A few days later they wired me the footage from their VHS surveillance cameras and of course I couldn’t help but ask Little Jack Films to make a music video out of it.”

On the song, Erenberg says, “sometimes you find yourself living a life that just doesn’t seem like yours. Even if all is well and good on paper, it isn’t necessarily OK inside. Finding yourself in this world isn’t a straight and narrow path. This song is for anyone going through some self discovery.”

WATCH AND SHARE “WHAT AM I DOING HERE?” HERE

Out today via Sleepless Records, Love Is Gonna Find You is the songwriter’s highly anticipated second album. The LP finds Erenberg lifting his listeners into a sphere of delicate fulfillment, painting loneliness as a universal craving for human connection over his narratives of getting sober, rain soaked mornings and searching for something bigger than ourselves. 

BUY / STREAM LOVE IS GONNA FIND YOU HERE

Growing up in the very rural Manitoba, Erenberg gravitated towards music as a curious endeavour around the age of 9 when he first picked up a guitar. That soon turned into writing and recording and inevitably, tours followed and numerous band projects continued until, at the age of 20, he set out to do his own thing. Going it alone has allowed him to express an overlying message of love and positivity through his work and it’s on Love Is Gonna Find You that Erenberg has truly found his groove.

Lyrically, the album paints a scrambling collage of navigating the loss of love while also providing a rolling, self-effacing pep talk. With love, comes pain and Erenberg’s commentary on both simultaneously elevates the textures throughout. It’s a kaleidoscope of memories, merged together to push Erenberg out of the funk he’s found himself in to produce something ultimately positive and downright life-affirming. As he points out on opener, “Do It For Love”, live for the minute you came to this Earth and the minute you’ll leave, no matter how long those nights can feel.

WATCH AND SHARE “DO IT FOR LOVE” HERE

Produced and recorded with Alexandre Bonenfant, the album was crafted in several studios between Toronto, Winnipeg, and Micah’s home town. Switching up the environments has manifested itself as a mirage of characters, ones that teeter on the soft focus of an acoustic guitar while others erupt into strange electronic soundscapes. There’s woozy harmonies, low croons and fervent choruses. Erenberg may revel in the gloom for a moment but it’s soon dispersed as the laugh of a friend echoes in between songs. It’s raw, it’s real and it’s full of heart.
