https://soundcloud.com/jessylanza

Jessy Lanza is a Canadian electronic songwriter, producer and vocalist from Hamilton, Ontario. Lanza was listed as one of the best new artists of 2013 by XLR8R. Her debut album, Pull My Hair Back, was mentioned by The Guardian as "...the latest and possibly greatest of the new ethereal soul girls" and ranked #4 on Resident Advisor's Top 20 Albums of 2013. Pull My Hair Back was co-written and co-produced with Jeremy Greenspan of Junior Boys and released on the UK's Hyperdub record label. Laced with funk, soul, R&B and haunting high-register vocals, Lanza cites Missy Elliot and Timbaland as early influences on her songwriting. Lanza grew up playing piano and studying jazz.

Pull My Hair Back is a shortlisted nominee for the 2014 Polaris Music Prize.

HEARTBEAT(S)_____
https://soundcloud.com/heartbeat_s

Formerly half of oddball duo LOL Boys (Friends of Friends Music), Heartbeat(s) is a slightly less cheeky project from Markus Garcia. Echoes of classic Detroit and Chicago sounds are anchored by an all business R&B twist. It may sound like a lot to take in, but at its core, Heartbeat(s) is a minimal affair aimed straight at the dance floor.
