Cherry Pick Interview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
With a voice as sweet as a cherry and jagged layers of guitar ruptures that could pick you up and throw you across a room, Cherry Pick finds us in the incessant unravellings of anxious thoughts, disappointment, and the muddiness of it all. When it comes to artists pushing the scene forward on the west coast, it's hard to miss Cherry Pick. Cherry Pick is a Vancouver based grungy shimmering project of Cherry. In our interview we talk about protecting your peace, conflict, shroom trips, life, love,
Youbet Interview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today's episode finds us mid-brunch, mid-tour with youbet — Nick Llobet and Micah Prussack, joined by Jolie Gordon and Adam Berkowitz — walking through their self-titled record from top to bottom. It's been a whirlwind year for the band, so we dive into how it reshaped and untangled them while writing the record, living "Undefined," and the riff they stole from a cut track to close the whole thing out. Catch Youbet again in Toronto for the Second Summer Festival!~~~> Sept 24 @ Drake Underground.

Read excerpt

Salami Rose Joe Louis Interview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today on Absent Sounds we're talking to Salami Rose Joe Louis — the project of Lindsay Olsen — at Sled Island, playing through her 2025 record, Lorings. If you know her earlier work, Lorings might catch you off guard compared to her previous albums built on elaborate concepts and world-building, Lorings strips it all back into something closer, quieter, journal-like between the middle of a couple of years through a hard stretch, and back again. We talk through the little moments of creative chao
SAMWOY Interview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We caught up with SamWoy — the project of Juno-winning musician and producer Sam Woywitka (Half Moon Run, Patrick Watson, Teke Teke, Luca Fogale) — at Sled Island in Calgary, where he was in town for two sets — one at Dandy Brewing, one at midnight at the Legion — off the back of his sophomore album, Even Sad Boys Like To Have Fun. SamWoy is an enigma, that became more layered with each minute spent unravveling. We talked about chaos as a way of life, the strange grief of looking at your past se
