LIDS, Lana Winterhalt, Lee Paradise, and Borscht

LIDS – Furniture

Furniture is a new single from LIDS, an experimental, alternative rock band from Toronto that has “holy fuck” as a tag on their bandcamp page. The titular track and the B side “Half Twin” have a heavy, distorted sound, eclectic vocals, and a lot of attitude. It’s post-punk excellence that leaves you wanting more.

Lana Winterhalt – Summer Magic

The newest EP from Winnipeg-based indie-pop musician Lana Winterhalt, Summer Magic is three bubbly tracks with an eponymous single that encapsulates all that is wonderful about the season of summer – going for a drive, hanging out at the beach, and the heat of passion from a summer love.

Lee Paradise – Tripping Over Daisies

Toronto’s Lee Paradise blesses us with his newest single, Tripping Over Daisies - an electronic house track featuring the vocals of Blunt Chunks and the wind and brass of Karen Ng. Their performances are interwoven into Lee’s lush, danceable groove of an instrumental. If you’re looking to boogie, this is a single your ears and body will appreciate.

Borscht – Dodo

Taking a pop sound and blending it with poetic vocals, Edmonton-based Borscht delivers their latest EP, Dodo, four songs that take reverberated guitars and a soft, mellow attitude towards expressing melancholy ideas to form a beautiful quadrant of musical pieces that leave you entranced in their soul gripping, entrancing style.
