San Cisco Returns with Sweet & Airy New Single and Video for “Honeycomb”
San Cisco take a slight sonic detour on the new single introducing elements of electronic, garage and house music throughout “Honeycomb.” The light, airy and angel-like vocals of drummer Scarlett Stevens take center stage on the new track, perfectly matching the dreamy, introspective mood of the track. “Honeycomb is about the moreish feeling of falling in love,” the band explains. “It’s about self-love and self-confidence and the joy of food. It treads this fine line of not wanting to lose yourself to love but also surrendering completely to someone and the sweet feeling that comes with that.”

Shane GHOSTKEEPER Announces Summer Album Alongside New Single “I Know How”
Fans of independent Canadian music will likely recognize the name Shane Ghostkeeper from his namesake project GHOSTKEEPER, a band that has been responsible for some of the more thrilling music to emerge from Alberta during the last 15 years. But while his parent band trades in a highly unique, left-of-centre approach to indie rock, this new project is a deeply reverential tribute to the music he absorbed while growing up in the Northern Alberta Métis communities of Paddle Prairie, High Level, and Rocky Lane. “The concept of this record,” he says, “is to present, as a gift to my people, an exploration of the country & western and roots records they surrounded me with since childhood.” Songs For My People is truly a family affair, slated for release on July 28, 2023 via Victory Pool Records.

Strings and multi-tracked vocals enrich the otherwise skeletal production, making for a song that’s so vulnerable it’s almost tough to listen to.
