Here at Exclaim!, we were intrigued to learn about Andy Sheppard's new self-titled album as Find the Others, which sees the Toronto artist introducing film footage into his inventive soundscapes. Now, we can listen to the entire 11-track effort ahead of its release date on November 1.
According to a press release, this music "explores the contrasts between a quiet childhood in tobacco country and a frenetic life in the city," with the tracks "[stretching] the boundaries of songwriting, drawing in contemporary rhythms, live looping, and ambient noise clips to create a mesmerizing new sound."
Listen for yourself in the player below.
Also be sure to check out the music videos for album cuts "Sons and Daughters" and "I Like You" to get a sense of the album's visual accompaniment. If you create and submit your own video for the song "And the Bells They Ring," you could win $750. See contest details here.
Sheppard will be taking this audio/visual project on tour in Canada next month. Go here to see the dates.
