Cupid's Heart on tour! Come and celebrate our tour kick off weekend and the release of a new single- Pick Me Up.
See you at The BlackRose Whiskey Club for an incredible night of music with Cupid's Heart, Actor Director, and Sunset Embassy.
Their tour will take them from Prince Albert to Toronto and back. Make sure to follow the fun.
Cupid's Heart:
A combination of the unruly and the refined- Cupid’s Heart uses cello, electric guitar, drum machine, and low female vocals in an exploration of alt-rock. Moody and dynamic, Cupid’s Heart weaves together an energizing, entrancing atmosphere. Previously described as “Chrissie Hynde Pretenders vibes with a pinch of Nirvana”, alternative rock fits them like a baggy sweater. Lyrically poetic, Cupid’s Heart expresses some of the complexities that go along with love and life, and does so from a queer female perspective. The pair are currently based in Prince Albert, SK. Their debut EP, Atrium, was released July 2023, a year that also saw the pair nominated for a SaskMusic Award.
Sunset Embassy:
Sunset Embassy kicks out urban prairie rock jams with sounds from the 80's/90's vibing on today's feelings. These ambassadors of the setting sun surround you like the valley with hot summer guitar licks and dreamy cool evening echoes.
Sunset Embassy pulls inspiration from strong women and seeks to diversify the music scene in Saskatchewan and beyond. The band is fronted by two Indigenous women: Anishinabe guitar player and songwriter Jori Cachene (she/her), and Cree vocalist Sophie Littlechief Carteri (she/her), and is rounded out by three queer musicians: bassist Charity Marsh (she/her), keyboardist Jaecy Bells (she/her), and drummer Collette Parks (they/them).
Based in Treaty 4 Territory aka Regina, Saskatchewan, Sunset Embassy delivers music to dodge potholes to. Formed at GRR! music camp in 2019 out of dreams of forever.
Sunset Embassy has played at Regina Folk Fest, Cathedral Village Arts Festival, and has opened for Megan Nash, Dump Babes
Actor Director:
Actor Director weaves sounds of fuzzy electronic basslines, lush synth chords, and powerful, evocative vocals to create sonic compositions that strike a stark contrast to their previous musical outlets of piano pop and brat-punk. The duo’s cinematic lyrics and hypnotizing melodies are essential in their songwriting; The music encompasses a mix of programming, looping, improvisation, conceptual lyricism, and experimental production, resulting in high energy Prairie-based electro-pop.
