Refuge

Widening soundscapes centered around minimalistic instrumentation compliment lyrics that capture an attention to beauty in the everyday details on Refuge, a step into the acoustic-souled, clean tone and harmony-heavy sound that is Canyon City’s signature.

Love's Road

Infused with sugar and grit, haunting melodies and direct lyrics, Karen Chisholm’s Love’s Road  confronts betrayal and champions freedom and deliverance through fire. It’s “the wind whipping my hair while I’m tapping the wheel and gettin’ the hell outta town as fast as I can,” she laughs.

The Witness (Sampler)

Popmatters called The Eastern Sea “way ahead of the bell curve,” and Paste referred to the sound of the band’s first album, (somewhere between Explosions in the Sky and Death Cab for Cutie) as “a pretty cool place to be for a band this young.”

Charlemagne

Dense and ambitious, with intricately woven patterns of mandolins and acoustic guitar butting up against dark and craggy synth basslines, at its core Malpas is about simple songs of love, loss, loneliness and finding freedom in the imagination.
