Event information

Field Guide creates a chimerical dreamlike soundscape, brought to life by his soft-spoken lyrical imaginings. Under the Radar With tender instrumentals and intimate vocals, [Field Guide] is sure to pull at your heartstringshe has truly cemented a signature sound. Indie 88 Field Guide (aka Dylan MacDonald) is a weaver of worlds. Built around his inviting voice and wrapped in warm textures, his self-titled sophomore full-length builds his most engaging world yet. It lives in a place between darkness and hopefulness with unshakeable melodies at its heart. Melody is what makes words fall out of my mouth. Its disarming. When I find a melody that represents my internal world, I drop my guard. I allow the words to appear out of thin air without judgement. A lot of these songs came to life that way. I wasnt trying to make anything, but the songs became a home for words that I wasnt yet ready to write on the page, MacDonald says.The past few years havent allowed for much escape from our interior worlds. Theres been a lot to move through, and many things can be true at once. This album lives at the sometimes-tense intersection of those truths loving someone dearly while being pulled toward something new, feeling joy in the melancholy, a gratitude for deep friendship and an uncertainty of ones place in it.The album is also alive with the people and places that surrounded its creation. Vocals and acoustic guitars were recorded near Riding Mountain National Park in a woodstove-heated cabin during one of Manitobas coldest winters in years. Bass and drums were tracked at Breakglass Studios in Montreal, a room that already felt familiar from falling in love with the records of tour-mate Leif Vollebekk. Final overdubbing took place at Monarch Studios in Vancouver surrounded by trusted engineers and friends. And constant inspiration was found in his circle of Winnipeg creators working away on their own projects. Like The Big Pink house Boy Golden, Slow Spirit, Roman Clarke, Kris Ulrich and others dropped in on each other to share demos and often lend their sounds to each others albums.Beyond his hometown, Field Guide has had the opportunity to meet some heroes and new friends. Hes supported Leif Vollebekk, Bahamas, SYML, Wild Rivers, JP Saxe and Penny s built a legion of fans online and on the road. So, while this is a solo album that invites the listener inside Field Guides inner monologue world, it really is meant to be lived in together. These are the truest, rawest songs that Ive ever written. Ive never felt so sure about something Ive made before. And now, its yours.
