Yes We Mystic:

Delivering at times like a dive into a dark, warm ocean, and at others like a blast of icy water on bare skin, Yes We Mystic is a dynamic and emotional musical powerhouse originating out of Winnipeg, Canada. Approaching genre as a tool rather than a barrier, the band takes instruments, ideas, and sounds from wherever they can to craft something that is all at once exhilarating, heartrending, pummelling, and grand. Hurling rock together with folk, hip-hop, and R&B, strings and mandolins together with synthesizers, pedals, samples, and vocal effects, they come up with songs that can mellow and groove but climb in an instant to towering, frenzied heights. Throwing opposites together has been a practice that they keep coming back to. The result is both unconventional and weirdly relatable. 


Basic Nature: 

Basic Nature is a shoegaze / dream pop, prairiegaze, if you will, duo from Winnipeg, Manitoba. One of the coldest winters Winnipeg had to offer in decades brought Claire Bones and Lizzy Burt together to form Basic Nature. Their passion for songwriting, sound and craft-making brought them together to complete the warm, lush and distorted songs compiled for their debut 6 song EP Circles & Lines, released under Sundowning Sound Recordings / Dub Ditch Picnic on May 9, 2015. 

The women have had much success since their formation back in 2014, including being selected to open for shoegaze legends Swervedriver (UK), invited to headline the Winnipeg New Music Festival and being invited to showcase at Canadian Music Week 2016. The duo have been receiving praise and critical acclaim for their debut release in blogs in North America, South America and Europe.
