Anchored by frontman Paul Murphy, alongside Loel Campbell’s hypnotic, propulsive drumming and Tim D’Eon’s shimmering guitar and piano work, the band conjures a sound that is intimate and adventurous. Their catalog, anchored by critically celebrated albums Untitled, Welcome to the Night Sky, Hello Hum, The Great Detachment and In the Land Of, occupies a distinct place in the Canadian indie rock canon.
