Montreal-based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Niall Mutter continues to sculpt the in-between as a comfortable resting space for himself, often rocking unsureness like a trusted pair of boots. Lightweight liquid riffs pair with beached out vocals, disguising what he really feels with a groove-infused suspension. 

His lucid approach to songwriting and minimalist production style weaves in threads from traditional root pop songs. Asserting presence and dissonance at the same time, his contemporary take becomes a dream-like pastiche of country and indie alternative.

Recently, Mutter announced the upcoming release of his debut LP, Silver, due out November 7, 2025 via Lighter Than Air / Nice Guys. Today, he shares another new single from the album, “Jenny Said”, an indie, roots-pop gem built for sun-soaked road trips, which was the last song written for the album. “It’s about a love chase — all the glimmer and charm of having your hands tied, with nowhere to go but to plunge into the unknown and like it for what it’s worth,” says Mutter. “Holding on to fragments of what’s been said, just to keep lassoing after the desire.”

MORE ABOUT NIALL MUTTER AND SILVER
Following the release of his debut EP, Pass Me By, Mutter garnered acclaim among audiences. The crooning opener “Maybe” was named one of Cult MTL's top 52 songs of 2022, and the release was featured on CBC Afterdark, CBC Q, and KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic.

In 2023, he decided to retreat to a cabin in rural Quebec, setting up a home studio by the lake with his trusted TASCAM 8-track cassette recorder. He wasn’t planning to make a record—just to escape the pressures and distractions of the city. Succumbing to the wilderness and the limitations of his environment, a new honesty emerged. 

Written and recorded in two months, the songs on Silver move through themes of memory, grief, desire, and personal transformation. Nature's unspoken mysteries meet wonky-carnival guitar licks, kicking the dust up at the horse track, or swimming begrudgingly through muddy waters – he abandons his so-called dreams to sequester himself and finally make sense of all the voices in his head.

“Black Water”, one of the album’s centrepieces, helped him rapture through the crust by commencing an ego-death, “there’s a strange, almost beautiful feeling in being pulled under by something bigger than you,” says Mutter. “In the water, there’s darkness, but also openness—a chance to cleanse the body.”

The rest of the album carries the same mood of an intimate unraveling.“Silver is what’s left after the shine wears off,” Mutter says. “It’s reflective, a little haunted—tender, tarnishable, but still strong.” There’s nothing rushed here—Mutter trades production sheen for emotional resonance, embracing imperfections, tape hiss, analog warmth, and silence itself as instrumentation. The result is a rugged and vulnerable effort to get beyond himself, travelling all the way into his haunting ballad “Wanderer” where he lets everything vanish. Even as his sound matures, Mutter never loses the grounding simplicity that defines his work. The influences are easy to trace— Cutworms, Sam Burton, Sylvie—but his voice is distinctly his own. A pastoral softness in his tone, tinged with a buried existential ache: the sense that every song is trying to hold a feeling that’s already begun to slip away.

Having performed at the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal in 2022 and cultivated a growing presence on national airwaves, Mutter now stands on the cusp of something wider. With Silver, he invites us to get grounded in the ephemeral, in that reflective, flickering space, he’s made something rare—an album sitting like a hunk of silver at the bottom of the lake—hoping you’ll meet him where he’s sat.

EVAN REDSKY TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM, THE LANGUAGE OF FISHERMEN, OUT OCTOBER 29, 2025 VIA VICTORY POOL RECORDS

Last month, punk-rocker / folk storyteller Evan Redsky announced his upcoming release, The Language of Fisherman, due out October 29, 2025 via Victory Pool Records. Having already shared singles “Are We Feeling Ok?” and “Cosmic Carousel”, today he returns with another new track, “Watching”.

“This is one of the first songs I wrote for this new record that was inspired by Richard Wagamese's autobiography One Native Life,” says Redsky. “In his story, he spoke about having to leave his community in light of being adopted out to a rural working-class family. There, he finds some peace in the simplicity of having a purpose and function. A lot of the meaning Wagamese searches for throughout his life is a parallel that I could draw within my own experiences. Having to leave my own community and search for purpose in another. Only to reflect back on the lessons that the community I came from gave me. This was one of those stories that really hit home for me and inspired me to write it as quickly as it takes to sing."

MORE ABOUT EVAN REDSKY + THE LANGUAGE OF FISHERMEN
Growing up on the Mississaugi First Nation reserve of Blind River, Ontario, Redksy was often compelled to hitchhike to Toronto to immerse himself in the city’s burgeoning punk and hardcore music scene. Redsky recalls sleeping under bridges and on construction sites, dedicated to making music happen. At 19 years old, Redsky started performing with punk outfit Single Mothers, going on to perform with the JUNO Award-nominated group everywhere from local clubs to Primavera Sound to the Pitchfork Music Festival. However, as the group saw increasing success, Redsky felt more and more empowered to explore other musical paths and tell his own stories.

These days, it’s tough to keep up with all of Redsky’s eclectic projects. He’s a member of “Turtle Island Hardcore” band Indian Giver; he performs with folk-rock duo Altameda and singer-songwriter Wyatt C. Lewis; he plays bass with groups like country ensemble Nicolette and the Nobodies. A stalwart of the Toronto scene, Redsky’s commitment to collaboration is evident in his impressive musicianship and impassioned songwriting, as he showcased on his debut solo album, 2022’s Oblivion.

Seeking inspiration for this new record, Redsky happened upon the works of celebrated Ojibwe author Richard Wagamese. Many of the songs on The Language of Fishermen were inspired by Wagamese’s stories, especially those from his autobiographical book One Native Life. 

Redsky, like Wagamese, is Anishinabek, and the two share the experience of growing up in the bush, on reserve, and navigating between cultural worlds. Between honouring Wagamese’s words and sharing his own reflections, Redsky’s The Language of Fishermen contains a lifetime of feeling—including honouring the often overlooked positive moments of simplicity and fulfillment.

“Contemporary Indigenous life experience doesn’t have to be rooted in trauma,” Redsky explains. “The little moments we experience, and the land we come from, are rich with inspiration.”

This soft, reflective state is captured on the song “The Language of Fishermen”, as the crew on the boat in the middle of the lake share “a smile, a nod, to the mystery of the land” as “The loons and shorebirds sang their songs.” Track two “Watching” (also inspired by Wagamese) conjures this sense of peace in everyday life, as a “foster kid from the fly-ins” learns by observation and comes to the conclusion: “If love and work is enough for them / It’s good enough for me.”

Redsky’s desire to share these stories can be traced to his prominent lineage of storytellers within his community. Notably, his great-grandfather, James Redsky, whose book The Great Leader of The Ojibway was published by the University of Toronto in the early 1970s. James Redsky was a prominent member of the spiritual group known as the Midewiwin and was one of the last people to possess ancient birch bark scrolls depicting centuries-old etchings that informed the community of much of their pre-colonial history.

The openness and sincerity that abounds on The Language of Fishermen was made possible by the deep connection and trust of its musicians. For the recording sessions at Dreamhouse Studios in downtown Toronto, Redsky brought in the “best friends and best players” he knew, including Matt Kelly (City and Colour), Troy Snaterse and Erik Grice (Altemeda), and John Dinsmore (Sarah Harmer, Bahamas), arranging and recording live off the floor. The resultant sound is crisp and inviting, with humming organ, pedal steel, and piano licks expanding around Redsky’s distinctive, silvery voice.

On album closer “Am I Allowed to Heal”, Redsky turns the camera directly on himself. The stories of trauma, recovery, and peace-making that linger across this album, this final track is as bold and direct in its message as in its raucous arrangement, harkening back to Redsky’s punk roots.

The theme of healing — and questioning if, when, and how healing can be accomplished — comes from Redsky’s own journey in the past few years. Through meditation, sobriety, and music, “The healing journey is constantly transforming,” Redsky says. But having known many Indigenous people who need permission to forgive themselves, and allow the healing process to begin, this song feels boldly overt, honest.

A couple decades into making music, with many more stretching out ahead, Redsky’s story is one of staying committed over the years, trusting the process, and trusting himself. Like the rolling highways Redsky sings of the song, “Northern Road”, with a “starry night beyond those headlights that could go on forever,” Redsky’s journey goes on.
