PEACH PIT


Peach Pit has become a standout in indie rock, known for their ability to craft songs that are both sonically rich and emotionally resonant. Since their 2016 debut Sweet FA, the Vancouver-based band—lead singer Neil Smith, guitarist Chris Vanderkooy, bassist Peter Wilton, and drummer Mikey Pascuzzi—have continuously evolved, expanding their sound while staying true to the heartfelt songwriting that first captured listeners’ attention. Their previous albums, You and Your Friends (2020) and From 2 to 3 (2022), saw the band honing their blend of introspective lyrics and dreamy, guitar-driven arrangements, incorporating elements of psychedelia and classic pop. With Magpie, Peach Pit takes this evolution further, infusing their signature indie-rock style with even more expansive, kaleidoscopic arrangements and raw emotional depth. The album reflects both personal growth and artistic exploration, drawing inspiration from a wide range of musical influences while embracing the duality of life’s choices, challenges, and moments of reflection. The energy on Peach Pit's Magpie is also the closest the band has ever come to capturing the essence of their legendary live show. Selling out nearly every headline show they’ve ever played, the band has also graced the bills of festivals such as Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees Festival, Bonnaroo, Osheaga, and played numerous sold-out tours in the US, Canada, Australia and Europe.

MIYA FOLICK


The album cover of Erotica Veronica captures Miya Folick canted on the edge of a mud pit, limbs flung wide like a fever-dream fossilized midway between earth and primordial soup. It’s an apt portrait: Miya is driven by instinct, drawn to the murk and muck of growth rather than stalled by its complexity. This brazen spirit is what led her to self-produce her latest full-length record, which is saturated with her catchy lyrical sensibility, astute musical craftsmanship, and signature vaulting, acrobatic voice

Both critically acclaimed precursors - her debut Premonitions and sophomore LP Roach - have been lauded as coming-of-age rhapsodies. It is tempting to say the same of Erotica Veronica; after all, this new album shows us a woman running headlong into sexual exploration, often teetering on the adolescent edge of hedonism and fear. Unlike the feral freedom of youth, it is anchored by the wisdom and depth gained only through lived experience.

Determined to make a straight-shooting indie rock record, Miya turned to guitar to write a majority of the album. She brought on Sam KS (Youth Lagoon, Angel Olsen) as co-producer and drummer, and recruited collaborators like Meg Duffy (Hand Habits, Perfume Genius) and Waylon Rector (Dominic Fike, Charli XCX). Leaning musicians’ personal style and skills, she went into the studio with the intention of capturing raw, live sound.

After a meteoric couple of years touring with Mitski, Faye Webster and Japanese House, as well as scoring feature film Cora Bora, this record is a return to Miya’s private world. She lays it on us in turns like honey and heartache, each medicinal in its own right. Erotica Veronica is her psychosexual, psychosensual masterstroke: a kaleidoscopic portrait of self-realization and integration.
