From the Promoter

The band’s second album, TOUCH will be released on September 9, 2016 on Sleepless Records (Canada), Island (U.S) and Universal (UK/Europe) and Vertigo/Capitol (Germany).

“Thematically, TOUCH has been inspired by our human experience over the past few years, just as much as our time spent as a band on the road,” notes songwriter and vocalist, Leah Fay. “Touring constantly provides a strange view of the world because you’re in transit more often than you’re still. We became sensitive to the varying reactions we’d get from any given audience depending on the cultural norms and politics of a place. Because humans love to categorize in an effort to understand, Peter and I were often perceived as these opposing forces, representing “light vs. darkness”, “female vs. male”, “sweet vs. scary” blah blah blah, with each of us just dying to get a word in edgewise. These types of assumptions had a massive influence on the way we wrote the lyrics for this album because we knew we didn’t want to feed into that sort of boring archetype. We became drawn to the idea of what it actually means to be a living breathing human. It’s messy and visceral and unpredictable.”

TOUCH’s debut single, Push + Pull has spent a month atop the Alt Radio Chart in Canada. The visceral video for Push + Pull, in-keeping with the band’s black and white visual motif was shot by Nadia Tan and has received widespread praise and views. The band recently performed Push + Pull live at the iheartradio/MMVA broadcast in Toronto, with the group aligning solidarity, pre-Pride and post-Orlando, with the LGBT community in an electrifying performance that featured Leah in rainbow eye make up, weeping glitter tears, that Nylon claimed their as their favourite: “…came in the form of the very special LGBT pride tribute made by July Talk’s Leah Fay and her dancers.”
