7 years ago today, our band @frontperson put our debut album ‘Frontrunner’ out into the world. Making this record at the @nmc_canada residency was a joyful fulfilment of a cute idea for @kathryn_calder and I (@markzipan posting!) to bring our friendship into music, and making songs with KC is still one of my absolute favourite things in the history of the world ever. Happy 7 years, ‘Frontrunner’! ✨

And it’s out! Our new @frontperson album ‘Parade’ is on all the streamers and available in physical format today at our @bandcamp . Linky link in the bio! 🎈
We’re exceptionally proud of this song called ‘Ostalgie (Für C. Bischoff)’ from the new @frontperson album out April 29, 2022 on @oscarstrecords / @wiaiwya . We wrote and recorded it before the pandemic forced us all within walls (and by ‘we’ that’s @markzipan , @kathryn_calder , @millymcwilly and @peach.pyramid ), and it’s taken on such different meanings since then. This video was filmed in our homes far away from one another, and stitched together by David Fortin in Montréal, a love letter of sorts to Sinead O’Connor close-ups and Ampelmann street crossings. ♥️
Here’s our new video for the @frontperson single ‘Calgary ‘88’ from the album ‘Parade’ released on April 29, 2022 by @oscarstrecords and @wiaiwya and featuring the always amazing @asomerajr 🕺
Pre-order the album at the link in bio. 🎸
