About Dylan Menzie:
Since 2013, Prince Edward Island’s Dylan Menzie has been steadily building a catalog of acclaimed, award winning music. Drawing inspiration from acts like Wilco, Fleet Foxes, and Vampire Weekend; Dylan Menzie is a combination of folk, rock, and pop elements best described as Indie Pop Americana. His dynamic vocals and compelling songwriting have given him the opportunity to showcase & tour across Canada and other countries around the world. Including performances at Edmonton Folk Festival, Australia Music Week, Breakout West, M for Montreal, Americanafest UK and many more.
In his upcoming release - North American Dream Kid - Menzie weaves together a collection of vulnerable, catchy, and sometimes ironic songs - with themes surrounding love, depression, the housing crisis, and the abuse of power - to create a narrative about a naive dreamer. Someone trying to make their way in North America, who becomes enraged by the corruption, profiteering and trickery they’re surrounded by - and ultimately seeks an escape to a quiet life.
About Elle & Jules
Elle & Jules are queer best friends with broken hearts. Elle (they/them) & Jules (she/her) have known each other since 2000 when they started high school together. Bonding over cannabis, music, and comedy, they always talked about writing songs together but only started on that journey in August of 2021.
Their music is raw and vulnerable with deeply personal lyrics about heartbreak, depression, and loss. Writing these sad songs together has been cathartic and healing for both Elle & Jules, who love being in a band together and creatively collaborating.
