🎵 Yukon Blonde - Sweet Dee - New Music - REACTION

Yukon Blonde is a Canadian indie rock band originally from Kelowna, British Columbia. The band has been based in Vancouver since 2009.

The band was named one of the "10 Canadian bands destined to break in 2010" by the CBC, and Chart called the band the best of the 2010 Canadian Music Week festival.

The album Tiger Talk was released in 2012. The band was nominated for the Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year in 2013.

After ten years since forming and five LPs, Yukon Blonde has been characterized in a lot of different ways.
They emerged as a guitar-heavy rock band with their debut self-titled LP in 2010 and by the release of On Blonde in 2015, Yukon Blonde was experimenting with slick, '80s-inspired pop elements like those heard on the album’s driving hit single “Saturday Night.”

More recently, on 2018’s Critical Hit, the Vancouver-based five-piece band turned their attention to mood making, largely ditching their guitars in favour of synths and drum machines to build danceable, multi-dimensional soundscapes.

With their fifth release, Vindicator, Yukon Blonde rewrote their story again. Jeffrey Innes (vocals/guitar/keys), Brandon Scott (vocals/guitar), Graham Jones (vocals/drums), James Younger (vocals/bass/keys), and Rebecca Gray (vocals/keys) douse keyboard melodies and relaxed grooves with psychedelic hues that are both playful and expansive. The kaleidoscopic voices of the opening track “It’s What You Are,” immediately put you under a joyful spell and then never let you go.

“We’re more mature and comfortable with ourselves now and we know that we can try something new even at this stage in our career,” explains Younger. “We completely deconstructed the narrative of the band and made the music that felt good at the moment.”

Vindicator is the first Yukon Blonde album written, recorded, and produced entirely by the band. It took shape in their jam space in East Vancouver, a cabin on Galiano Island, in a closet at Younger’s home, and in Innes’ kitchen. But this DIY ethos has always been the backbone of Yukon Blonde who are curious artists with a passion for honing their craft.

The in-house approach to Vindicator allowed Yukon Blonde to stretch themselves creatively and experiment with sounds and styles in ways they haven’t before. The band shares vocal duties – Gray thrives in the spotlight on the groovy “Fickle Feelings” – and Innes, the band’s primary songwriter, let his lyrics – which touch on everything from love to redefining your relationship with social media – drive the shape of the songs.

These are my reactions and reviews from the NEW wave of the 60s - 70s style music from artists of the past, and new 60s - 70s style artists from the year 2000 to the now. Great new music I think is cool and far out and has groove, and everyone might like.

And who knows maybe a surprise or three with some great (IMO) the 60s - 70s style music from before Y2K ;)
