Today the Montreal based band Loon Town dropped their long awaited album called Slow Space.
A nice blend of catchy upbeat spacey synth-pop orchestral folk music.
About the album from Loon Town:
Slow Space emerged in a shared period of grief for David, Danielle and Nicolas.
In their ensuing writing retreat, the trio of songwriters and vocalists unfolded their personal experiences in relation to loss, creating together a narrative in a fictionalized shared hometown called Loon Town.
As they wrote, Loon Town began to crystallize, leading to a cast of characters and locations, and they began to imagine a ‘return home’ sparked by a funeral and resulting in an extended stay. This fictionalized Slow Space allowed them to dive into moments along the timeline of their lives and to encompass the different versions of themselves and the slew of emotions felt along the way. It is a reflection on love and loss, on the importance of home and those we hold dear.
Slow Space was produced by Lisa Conway (L CON) and recorded in the summer of 2021 at Wildlife Sanctuary Sound in Guelph ON and The House of Miracles in Cambridge ON.
It features gorgeous brass arrangements performed by Andy Magoffin and additional lead guitar by Brodie Conley.
The album will be accompanied by an interactive soundmap of Loon Town & a vinyl pressing with artwork by visual artists Davide Di Saro and Andrea Cossu and coding by Liam Brown.
