The modern music scene rarely graces us with soulful rock, yet Danish duo Canvases have rekindled this timeless sound with their latest single, Falling Apart.
Following their impressive debut with Mistakes, Canvases‘ third release, Falling Apart, captivates with a delicate opening that gradually crescendos into a powerful, beat-driven anthem. The soulful lyrics, imbued with raw emotion and honesty, explore the turbulence of a faltering relationship, capturing the poignant struggle to hold on amidst the inevitability of parting ways.
Falling Apart is a tapestry of compelling vocals, 80’s nostalgia, and neo-soul undertones, all tinged with a rock edge. This fusion evokes a vivid imagery of white t-shirts and tight jeans, perfectly complementing the duo’s visual aesthetic. Their style recalls the timeless appeal of classic bands like Fleetwood Mac and the Doobie Brothers, thats sure to resonate with new listeners.
Both members of Canvases bring a rich musical education and experience. Morten Bille has honed his craft through various music courses in Copenhagen and New York, while Chris Catton holds a Bachelor of Music from the Royal Academy of Music in Aarhus. Their extensive backgrounds span diverse projects, from musicals to garage punk, culminating in the unique sound that defines Canvases.
For those who yearn for the classic vibes of yesteryear, Canvases is a must-add to any playlist, affirming that they can still make music like they used to.
