I spend a lot of March compiling music for future Maple Leaf Marches. Sometimes, the songs are great and will make good music for future Marches, or really, for any month of the year.
Sometimes, I can't wait.
And, so we are clear, I almost completely bumped Lights for this one.
I decided this was a good day to double up instead of bumping anyone.
Amber Webber and Joshua Wells are Lightning Dust, and they are also members of another band called Black Mountain. Hailing from Vancouver, Lightning Dust is presumably named after a character from My Little Pony... but, more importantly, they are focused on synth-pop-rock sounds that are really interesting.
This song, a driving synth anthem, is from their 2013 album Fantasy, and it is really solid.
Despite being a side project, this duo does perform their critically acclaimed music live, and they do so with far more emotion that you might expect from a synth-pop-rock duo.
