For his 2024 album, North Wind, Spencer Burton retreated to a small off-grid cabin in Northern Ontario, reconnected with nature and found peace and comfort in isolation. Taking a step back from the realities of life let him step back into making music after some time away.

Today, Spencer is sharing his first new music since the release of North Wind which follows in the same vein. “Prairie Moon” is a song “about home, or rather the feeling of home. Life can take you places you might not want to be, at a time where the only thing giving you hope is the idea of home. I found home and hope could be found in simple things. Sharing the same sky, sharing the same sounds, sharing the same moon. Prairie Moon was written in two different places. While those places were incredibly distinct in their own ways, they both held one truth: The want for someplace better.”

MORE ABOUT SPENCER BURTON
On making North Wind, Spencer says, “I always felt this need for importance, this need to be poetic. It came, but it felt mandatory at times. I struggled with that,” says Spencer. “But then I found beauty in the simple things. A bird's song. A rustling gale. A ripple in the water. With the beauty of those simple things came importance and poetry in an unforced, natural way.”

The majority of North Wind was written in the north woods, in solitude and reflection. And while the songs have a spiritual importance, they also speak to ordinary life away from it all–fishing, an encounter with a coyote, sitting with your own thoughts.

“It’s really interesting what pleases the ear, musically, when isolated for a few weeks at a time. The only inspiration being yourself and the beauty of true untampered nature. It’s a different atmosphere than what we’re accustomed to. It really helped bring these songs to life.”

“I’m not really trying to write music these days,” says Spencer. “I’m trying to write good feelings.”

On May 1 Geordie Gordon will release his third solo album River Round, a collection of love songs as intimate anthems of resilience. Friendship and romance stand off with life’s losses as Gordon weaves into his home-recorded folk music the irrepressible joys of pop—memorable verses and soulful, hard-hitting hooks—honed in his career as sideman and collaborator in acts including Islands, US Girls, Andy Shauf, and The Weather Station. 

Today, he shares the video for the new single, “All The Fires”. The song comes from “my attempt to put myself in the shoes of someone who has just lost everything,” says Gordon. “I wrote the song in an emotional flurry after watching a Patti Smith performance. I was so inspired by the way she can plainly deliver a simple chord progression yet instill the most powerful meaning into every word. I aspired to craft a song devoid of flash or excess, purely a vessel for the grief and anxiety that I had been storing in the pit of my stomach. 

 “As I was recording the song, I was reading Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower, a work of fiction following a young woman as she loses her whole community in Southern California due to intense climate and social upheaval. That same month three musical colleagues of mine had their homes burnt to the ground in the LA Wildfires, showing just how quickly science fiction can become a reality in our lives.”

MORE ABOUT GEORDIE GORDON + RIVER ROUND
On River Round Gordon plays a small orchestra of instruments, including acoustic and electric six-string and tenor guitars, bass, mandolin, electric mandola, octave mandolin, fiddle, organ, Wurlitzer, Moog, and glockenspiel.

The title River Round cites the “round” as a form of singing in unison, a blending of voices, hinting at how this solo project is in fact a revival, a revelry of coming together. Even in the apocalyptic “All the Fires,” a song that looks frankly at the world, Gordon’s lyrics insist there’s a way through, and that way is by coming together: “I just need to see you safe by morning. Because there’s no morning without you.”

On the album’s second track, “River House” Gordon brings back to life the old, crumbling rooms of a home he moved into at 18, where so many musicians would be roommates and gather to imagine and build the artist’s hometown punk and folk scene in Guelph, Ontario. That community mourns through “Richard’s Song,” an ode to the late musician and indomitable “front man” Richard Laviolette (1982–2023), whose Sunday band practices Gordon recalls with radical tenderness. He sings to Richard, ‘We can’t rehearse for what life brings / You know you can tell me anything,’ and the lines resound as a call to nurture, through song, friendship and queer life at every beginning, end, and transition. This nurturing might be what Gordon calls “the good hurt in the music.” 

Geordie Gordon is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Toronto and raised in Guelph, Ontario, where at the age of 13 he began playing in touring bands. For twenty years, he has toured with acts including Islands, US Girls, Andy Shauf, and The Weather Station. His solo project combines folk, soul, and pop in classic songs with lyrical verses and melodic, explosive hooks. His songs tell stories of coming of age, music community, and queer love. River Round is his third solo album on Victory Pool Records.

CINZIA & THE ECLIPSE’ THE WAX EP RELEASED TODAY

CINZIA & THE ECLIPSE’ THE WAX EP, OUT TODAY

PERFORMANCE DATES CONTINUE APRIL 26

Over the past few years, Cinzia & The Eclipse have been quietly teasing songs from a new collection, giving audiences glimpses into a project that marks a turning point in her artistic evolution. Out today, The Wax EP finds the Montreal-born folk-pop singer-songwriter stepping into a new era — one defined not only by vulnerability, but by accountability. 

The Wax EP goes further into self-reflection, accountability and ownership. Rather than seeking validation or understanding from others, Cinzia turns inward; “I went through two of the toughest years of my life feeling no sense of belonging and losing my purpose. My writing took a turn where I felt I didn’t have anything to say. It wasn’t until I listened back to my discography and noticed one particular thing. I always made every song about someone else. I wrote and sang about decisions they made that affected me, faults that I imposed on them. This body of work is a way to own up to choices I’ve made, as opposed to blaming other people for situations we found ourselves in.”

Written over the past year during a period of personal transition, the EP came together in intimate writing sessions with LucaTheProducer, Markybeats, and one particular girls night with Emma Lamontagne and Vanessa Roque (Exa). The music centres around raw lyricism and stripped-back folk-pop arrangements. Rooted in acoustic textures and atmospheric layers that nod to her Eclipse moniker, the project blends organic instrumentation with subtle, celestial tones. True to her brand, Cinzia has aligned the EP’s rollout with lunar cycles, building anticipation among her devoted moon-and-eclipse-following fan base through timely releases and symbolic teasers.

At its core, songwriting remains the essence of everything for Cinzia. Every melody begins with a lyrical truth. Every arrangement serves the story. Folk-pop may frame her sound, but confession fuels it.

The Wax EP symbolizes rebirth, a shedding and reshaping, much like the lunar imagery that has long surrounded her artistic identity. The project represents growth, illumination, and stepping into alignment both musically and personally. In owning her missteps and choices, Cinzia & The Eclipse find their place not only within the music industry, but within the wider universe.

Raised in Montreal’s vibrant community, Cinzia developed her voice as a storyteller early on, crafting songs that feel both intimate and cinematic. Over the years, she has steadily grown a dedicated following, amassing strong streaming numbers and performing at major festivals including Festivoix, Ottawa Bluesfest, Festival sur le Canal, and St. Roch XP
