about

Standing at a figurative fork in the road on his creative journey, Dylan Menzie didn’t opt for one route over the other; instead, he simply decided to extend his trip and explore both with an eager heart and open mind.

The acclaimed PEI-based songsmith had amassed an array of fresh material amidst the support cycle for his 2018 EP, As the Clock Rewinds – a collection of reimagined tracks from his breakout 2016 studio LP, Adolescent Nature. When it came time to flesh out their arrangements and put them to tape, though, he found himself staring down two distinct trails.
One would bring him deeper down the path of forthright, earnest folk music anchored by organic instrumentation and his unmistakable vocal stylings – that which had already earned him an enviable amount of acclaim and accolades. The other would lead into more abstract and ethereal territory – lush soundscapes defined by digital flourishes and off-kilter experimentation.

Holed up for a snowy month in an isolated house on a Newfoundland cliffside, Menzie, producer Romesh Thavanathan (of Hey Rosetta!), and a revolving cast of collaborators charted both routes simultaneously, resulting in the artist’s most eclectic and ambitious effort to date.
