CANADIAN INDIE ROCKERS WE FOUND A LOVEBIRD TAP JAZZ LEGEND CHET BAKER’S WISDOM FOR HAUNTING NEW SINGLE “CHET”
INDEPENDENT
Today, We Found a Lovebird have shared their latest offering, “Chet”.
Since 2009, We Found a Lovebird has excelled in creating trance-like, chiming rock, capturing the attention of fans and critics alike. With three albums, one EP, and eight singles to date – including a Polaris Music Prize nomination and consistent radio support from CBC and KEXP – the band has become a respected name in indie rock. Their upcoming album With Friends Like These has seen a steady rollout of several singles, with “Chet” as the latest addition.
Inspired by a poignant moment from the Bruce Weber documentary on Chet Baker, “Chet” captures a scene in which Baker, against all expectations, reflects on his life without regret, expressing only gratitude for the path he has walked. With an unconventional chord progression (blending C, Fm, and E7 in a way rarely seen in rock), the track evokes moody, evocative, and haunting vibes, channeling the wistfulness and mystery of iconic 80s rock groups while paying homage to musical legends.
Artist Quote
The lyrics of this song are Chet’s verbatim response when asked if he felt regret. His words resonated deeply with me. He saw only gratitude, no regrets. That perspective is powerful. It’s not unlike the themes that run through many of our songs – nods to iconic artists, life’s moral conundrums, and the ever-present possibility of love. ~Larry Lechner (Lead Vocals/Guitar)
