Helena Deland (Montreal, QC)
Bandcamp
Helena Deland is a Montreal-based musician interested in how songs can hold what eludes everyday language. Her music draws on reading and walking around.
She released her first album, Someone New, in 2020 on Luminelle Recordings. It was followed by the release of Hildegard, a collaborative album with fellow Montreal musician Ouri on section1. On October 13th, 2023, Helena reveals her sophomore full-length record, Goodnight Summerland, an intimate and meditative collection of eleven songs published by label and longtime collaborators Chivi Chivi. Goodnight Summerland features singles “Swimmer”, “Spring Bug”, “Bright Green Vibrant Gray” and “Strawberry Moon”.
She has extensively toured North America and Europe opening for the likes of Weyes Blood, Andy Shauf, Connan Mockasin, Soccer Mommy and Iggy Pop.
Hana Stretton (Melbourne, Australia)
Bandcamp
Hana Stretton is a British/Australian composer, singer and producer known for her remarkably warm production style and uniquely spacious songform. In 2023, her debut album, Soon, earned a beloved status among discerning listeners around the globe. This stunning work caught the ear of one Phil Elverum, who lovingly reissued Soon through his own label in 2024, furthering the album’s reach and deepening its reputation. In the press, Elverum said: “I hear an artist who has entered completely into the stream where creation originates […] Hana Stretton has truly recorded the deep flourishing sound of a quiet listening mind in full blossom.” A fitting testament to a young artist rooted in the stillness of nature.
