A sorrowful soundtrack, inspired by the production of great crooners and folk artists of the 70s\/80s like Cohen, Lightfoot, and Nick Drake, to name a few, Love achieves a similar quality on Lavender. Like a Chris Isaak trapped in a David Lynch film, Love’s haunted \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003evocals guide the listener through poetic verses on the archetypes of love and truth, posthumous poetry by his grandfather circa 1930s, and escapism, all melting and flowing into a pool of celestial wisdom. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAcoustic guitars sweep across desolate sonic landscapes of global narcissism, social media and the universal need for connection. Hypnotic bass grooves and lush 3D string ensembles, wrap the listener in a familiar cinematic romance, embraced and mystified. 'Lavender' explores the universal threads that make us feel and experience what we do, in a time when the need to peer into ourselves has never been more important.

Self-recorded in a variety of spaces through out Turtle Island (Canada \u0026amp; The USA). Specifically, Toronto Island, a basement in Edmonton, AB, various apartments and motels in Los Angeles and around the United States, on a road trip west via the Trans-Canada highway and ending at a cabin in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“There’s a lonesome vibe to his brand of heartland rock, evoking late nights on a deserted road, or neon-lit streets just after a rainstorm.” (Brooklyn Vegan) \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTRACKLIST: 1) Sleight Of Hand 2) Heart Of Mine 3) Late One Night 4) Come Into The Garden 5) Lavender 6) For You 7) Laughin’ In The Dark 8) Sailin’ On 9) Take Me There\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taxi Gauche","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40614081560732,"sku":"TGR026","price":14.54,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/TGR026.jpg?v=1628516618","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/calvin-love-lavender","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
