JP Maurice

After 15 years of maneuvering the obstacle course of the modern-day music industry, Vancouver’s JP Maurice has finally arrived at a place of complete control and confidence in his craft. Earnest, indie-pop beginnings have evolved into a more mature, polished sound. Sweeping melodies are punctuated by JP’s powerful vocal range expressing evocative lyrics of love, loss and overcoming hardship.

Crafted over several years, JP bares to witness his deep sensibilities as a songwriter in his latest collection of music. Pressure Makes Diamonds is the 5th studio album from JP, following his alt-country rooted, rock album Boys (2018) and the moody, pop-noir smash Girls (2017). Pressure rings true with JP’s strengths as a vocalist and takes the listener on a journey from lofty, booming notes that lift JP’s voice to the rafters, to driving melodies that hint of shoegaze rooted in pop-folk. Buoyant, soulful vibes resonate from songs like Runaway, and land strongly with razor sharp, ethereal and harmonic highs in Liquid Confidence. The album beats with anxiety, struggle, perseverance, resilience, doubt, wanderlust and loss.

Dominique Fricot

For Vancouver’s Dominique Fricot music has always been a form of therapy, a way to explore and share

the traumas of real life. Fricot’s music brings to mind the widescreen, melodic pop of Peter Gabriel or

Phil Collins, and fuses it with the influence of more modern songwriters from Bon Iver to Sufjan Stevens.

Recently relocating to Berlin, Germany, Fricot has maintained a ferocious appetite for collaborating, from

forming side projects Flora Falls and Folk Road Show, to lending his vocals to electronic tracks by Rodg,

Sascha Braemer and Pierre Leck, all the while maintaining a dynamic range of solo releases.
