Few bands can drag a generation by the heartstrings quite like pop-punk royalty Yellowcard. When they wrapped things up a decade ago, it felt like the final curtain on a sound that defined the sweaty, sun-drenched glory days of the Warped Tour era, but true rock and roll never stays buried for long.

Melissa Weikart’s L’amour se construit unfolds like a strange, slow moving dream, with piano, electronics and voice gradually slipping into one another. The track has a psychedelic quality, but it never loses its connection to the intimacy of a song. Weikart’s vocal feels close and unforced, moving through the arrangement as the production twists and expands around it. Small shifts in texture keep the piece slightly unsettled, giving its gentle pace an underlying tension. There is something beautifully imperfect in the way the track approaches love, avoiding the usual romantic gloss in favour of something more ambiguous and human. Weikart’s background in jazz, folk pop and improvisation comes through in the freedom of the arrangement, while her electronic side gives the song a more unpredictable shape. It is an intriguing meeting point between experimental pop, intimate songwriting and psychedelic sound design.

Love gets stranger when the edges are left imperfect.

Growing Towards The Light, a new mini album I’ve been steadily working on since the completion of Home Truths (YYZ Records), is out now. Bandcamp only for the time being, you can check it out here.

This collection sees me experimenting with different recording techniques and a (slightly) wider sonic palette, whilst (hopefully) staying true to my lofi, in-the-moment ethos.

Growing Towards The Light chronicles the hope that comes with finding peace through nature, to the tune of fractured electronica, lofi folk and video game baroque. The album’s title was inspired by a photograph shared by Shane Speed (Sea Of Days). It portrayed a fallen tree clinging by its roots, growing towards the light. It reminded me that whilst we are all a little broken, what else is there to do but try?

Many thanks and much love,
