Indie-Rock Group We Found a Lovebird Shares Mysterious Track "Signal Hill"

• LISTEN TO + SHARE THE DRIVING “SIGNAL HILL” HERE

With a sound described as ‘delectably dreamy’ and ‘sparkling;’ Vancouver’s 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 seven singles from their upcoming album With Friends Like These.

 

Their latest release, “Signal Hill,” is a creation coming from multiple sources including a visit to St. John’s, Newfoundland’s Signal Hill which was thought of as a spooky setting for a Spy vs. Spy series.  The group often pulls inspiration from iconic people, places and even overheard snippets of conversations. 

 

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. Musically, “Signal Hill” captures an urgent vibe also brought forth by the way it was recorded. Everything except the vocals were recorded live off the floor in our studio. We love the energy of four guys in a room going for it. There’s no faking the live interplay.

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.
