Canadian synth-twisters Young Galaxy have a question for you: were you ever a dreamer? They pose this, of course, in the form of "Were You Ever a Dreamer?" 

Wrapped up in digital delights, from red-velvet keyboards and blipped and bopped synth-bass to a smooth but snappy drum machine beat, the song has frontwoman Catherine McCandless weighing in on the mindframes of any fantasy-focused dreamer currently getting "high on desire."

The slinking synth piece, which was included as a bonus track on Falsework, can be streamed below.

As previously reported, Young Galaxy have a number of North American concert dates starting up at the end of the month. They've since juggled their schedule a bit, cancelling an appearance in Vancouver that was to take place next Thursday (January 28), but you can see the show schedule as-is below.

Tour dates:

01/28 New York, NY - Le Poisson Rouge
02/03 Washington, DC - Black Cat (Backstage)
02/04 Pittsburgh, PA - Brillobox
02/05 Chicago, IL - Subterranean
02/17 Toronto, ON - Mod Club
