WE FOUND A LOVEBIRD – “SIGNAL HILL”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE MUSIC PREMIERE
We Found a Lovebird excels at trance-like chiming rock. Since 2009, they’ve released three albums, one EP and eight singles with highlights including a Polaris Music Prize nomination and radio support from CBC and KEXP. Since 2020, they’ve released eight singles from their upcoming long player With Friends Like These.
Despite their western roots, We Found a Lovebird often have Halifax tastemaker David Boyle reaching for New York comparisons, evoking Television on 2019’s Deluxe Hotel and a more tuneful Richard Hell & the Voidoids here, or perhaps the likes of Lloyd Cole, post-Commotions when he, too, was a New York resident.
What it all adds up to is the enduring magic of a rock & roll four-piece with elegant guitar interplay, topped off with evocative lyrics. It’s a durable model because it continues to work and is still a vehicle for refreshing work.
ARTIST QUOTE
“Signal Hill” takes us deep into a Canadian spy-vs-spy scenario in which you (the listener) are complicit and ultimately found out because of your taste in footwear.” ~Larry Lehner
