Owen Marchildon Explores the Underside of Fame on "Celebrity Singles"

Owen Marchildon is a songwriter and guitarist who has been part of the Toronto music scene since 2002. Owen's creative output has been prolific, producing volumes of his own music independently since 2005. 10 full-length albums, one EP, and several singles under four different monikers: Purple Hill, Rough Skeletons, Marchildon! and High Wasted. Owen has also played bass for the critically lauded Math Rock Quartet, From Fiction, and later with Julie Kendall's surf-soul project, 1977.

2024 has seen Owen pulling back the veil of all his previous monikers and releasing new music under his own name, starting with the sweet pop ode to his wife, "Heavy Dreams." 

His latest release, "Celebrity Singles," is a jangly rock 'n' roll tune about the loneliness and isolation of fame and the endless amount of energy that goes into maintaining the dream. After all, "in Hollywood nothing ever lasts forever, except plastic surgery and sunny weather." Longtime bandmates and collaborators, Jordan Bruce and Brent Hough, spread out the sound, complimenting the style, imagination, and fabric of Owen's songwriting.
