Solo Artist Grizzly Coast Celebrates Our Common Humanity on Cheerful & Energetic Indie Pop Bop "Clouds"
• LISTEN/SHARE “CLOUDS” HERE •
From the imaginative, yet highly analytical mind of Alannah Kavanagh comes Grizzly Coast, the Toronto-based solo musical project that blends dreamy indie rock instrumentation with introspective pop lyricism. Recorded at Dreamhouse Studios with acclaimed producer Alex Bonenfant (July Talk, Crystal Castles), the production of new single, “Clouds,” showcases a blend of joyful synths and driving guitars. This careful arrangement complements the honest and raw lyricism that Kavanagh values.
“Clouds” is an indie pop anthem that delves into the shared experience of mental health struggles, wrapped in an uplifting melody. “The song is a celebration of our common humanity,” says Kavanagh, affirming that we are never alone in our personal challenges. What makes it particularly memorable is its hypnotic synth riff that graces the chorus, an element so catchy it instantly engrains itself in the listener's mind, inviting them to feel the communal vibe of the track.

When the clouds start turning to dust
Yeah you’re one of us
When you feel like there’s no one to trust
Yeah you’re one of us
