Gentle Party + Wallgrin
GRANVILLE ISLAND JAZZ
GENTLE PARTY
West Coast chamber pop trio Gentle Party’s expansive sound interweaves the nimble, melodic strings of harpist Elisa Thorn (HUE) and violinist Meredith Bates (Pugs & Crows) with dream-like electronic shimmers and Jessika Yliruusi’s hauntingly evocative voice. The Wire calls their lush new album, God Complex, “startlingly confident and accomplished.”
WALLGRIN
“The vocal equivalent of walking on water, Wallgrin’s spacious, spacey and atmospheric songs are as thoughtful as they are compelling.” — CBC Music Vancouver-based composer/vocalist/violinist Tegan Wahlgren’s lush, string-based orchestration, beat-driven pop, and ornate vocal arrangements “measure up to standards set by art-pop visionaries like Björk and Kate Bush” (Northern Transmissions).
