Today Was A Good Day

"Hazy Past" is a small release and pairing of two new songs which will be included in a future full length record I've been working on in recent months. For this batch of tracks I'll be hand-dubbing and self-releasing a limited number of cassettes (30 in total) which will be available for purchase online soon.

I Could Waste My Night With You

To L.A.B.

I could waste my night with you as long as I'm by your side. 
Just let me be next to you, it always seems to feel right. 
I used to write painful songs, about how I treaded alone. 
But these days have been so warm, together waking up in the 'morn. 
I tried to just laugh a lot. All those months ago, with my sad thoughts. 
But then you, just walked through and through. 
Seeing you never makes me blue. 

I could spend all day with you. I could lay down next to you. I could fall asleep with you. I could wake up next to you. 

We should quit smoking someday. Someday soon, someday soon. 
But for now I'll lose my lungs. I'll lose them with you, I'll lose them with you.

Lyrics:

Could you tell me again
what you felt when I said
it would get easier
I know I said it myself
It's just a habit to help
a friend feel better

It's going to get better
It's going, going, going

It's trouble free
finding all the ways to
help you make it easier
But when I feel it myself
I lose the habit to
help me to feel better

It's going to get better
It's going, going, going

dumb love

Just a music producer artist guy who loves steamed vegetables and is mostly blind in one eye. Here's my story.

In the 2020 clusterduck-shmitstorm, I quit my corporate job and moved from the Toronto area to Vancouver Island with my wife and two cats where I'd write and record the first Calm Canopy singles (, , , ) in a makeshift bedroom studio, which were all released over the span of a few months.

2021: the new songs made their way into new ears via various Spotify editorial playlists such as Indie All Stars, Fresh Finds, Fresh Finds: Rock, Fresh Finds: Indie, Fresh Finds: Pop, RADAR Canada, New Music Friday Canada, undercurrents, and Ready to Rock. I was floored. I felt like dancing; I did. I enjoyed a square of the darkest chocolate I could find. Then I got back to work.

Today, I continue to produce my indie rock/pop anthems of inner discovery from my home studio in a small town located West of Toronto. 🇨🇦 Thank you for lending me your ears.

"Calm Canopy is one of those artists you should appreciate [...] it's a one-man-band who knows how to pen a song, play, record, and do everything else" - It's All Indie
