MOVIELAND • "Just A Second” • 2025






Originally formed in 1991, MOVIELAND made their mark with immersive guitar textures, hypnotic rhythms, and melancholic melodies—traits that remain front and center on Now & Then. With nods to shoegaze pioneers like My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, and The Jesus and Mary Chain, MOVIELAND’s sound continues to evolve without losing its emotional core. “It’s been fun playing a few shows mixing in the old and new tunes,” Boyd reflects. “Trying to do it solo has made me rethink how to recreate those layers with just guitar and voice. But we did a show in my hometown [Edmonton] with a full band, and it kinda knocked it out of the park. I hope I can get out and play more of this—both solo and with a band. Plus, I’ve got 15 more songs ready to go… so let’s see!”

Kassi Valazza • From Newman Street • 2025



"Valazza is a songwriter’s songwriter, the kind of lyricist who makes it embarrassing to describe her with such a cliché. Across three albums of thoughtful, increasingly ambitious folk music, she’s carved out a reputation for her sharp pen and even sharper ear. Equally indebted to Laurel Canyon-era Joni Mitchell, Sandy Denny-era Fairport Convention, and the humanistic freak-folk of the late Michael Hurley, whom she collaborated and toured with toward the end of his life, her sound straddles just about every folk subgenre without truly belonging to one… From Newman Street, Valazza’s third album, contains her most incisive writing yet.”
