Iyer's signature post-genre pontifications are in full bloom on her latest single "What can we grow that we can't see from here?" in which she reminds us that the groundwork for new, radical futures can be laid by our own hands. Such prescient lessons are a prominent fixture of Iyer's work—current and past—this time delivered with a thumping, controlled pop sensibility that says even when things feel stagnant and unclear, there is a way through.

Out everywhere today, Hornet Disaster is a bustling record with disparate songs each vying for space like wasps in a swarm. It can inspire caution and chaos, but there's wonder, purpose, and a certain familiarity there, too. Weatherday has extended the knotted, thrashing maximalism of Come in by doubling down with the uncompromised, no-stone-unturned nature of Hornet Disaster. Where Come in was the product of an artist searching for their voice, Hornet Disaster represents the joyful abandon that comes from having found it. Catch the band on tour this spring and summer across the US, UK, and Europe! read more →

On her third full length TIDE/TIED, Montreal artist Thanya Iyer expands on the future-folk designs of sophomore album KIND with washes of jazz-infected pop and ensemble ambience. While Iyer explored a more personal journey of self-love on KIND, she, her band, and a cohort of guest musicians embark on a new way of moving on TIDE/TIED, prizing collective care and communal healing as antidotes to the dissonances of living in a colonial, capitalistic world. read more →
