Lost Lover’s Brigade
I have been a secret admirer of Lost Lover’s Brigade for a while. They have mainly been playing small underground shows in Vancouver and not many. I was attracted by the lo-fi county infused songs on “the groups” myspace that I found myself listening to on repeat.
The project has been mostly a solo project by Singer-songwriter Elisha May Rembold who recorded on a Sears tape recorder she got from her grandmother. Now playing as a group with members of the Polaris Prize nominated band, Apollo Ghosts they have just finished an album at JC/DC studios (Destroyer, New Pornographers).
Exciting stuff.
The Lost Lover’s Brigade celebrate the release of their long awaited debut, Little Skeletons, on Friday, December 16 at Interurban Gallery (1 East Hastings Street). The show starts at 8pm and also features performances from Shimmering Stars and Kellarissa.
