Earth Ball’s energetic, improvised live shows have been “known to make headliners nervous”, according to fellow Canadian experimental musician Alex Moskos. Now the band, who formed in 2020, are readying themselves to release their debut album ‘It’s Yours’ on UK label Upset The Rhythm.
Out now is new single ‘A Need To Cool Down’, which captures the explosive energy of their performances, rocketing forwards with no wave riffs until its eventual collapse about six minutes in.
Vocalist Isabel Ford says the track represents "the moment in the cycle of release and repression where you get explosively birthed out of a canal only to be hit by a truck seconds later. Cool it, it's temporary”.
As well as putting out the album on 17 May, the band will be in the UK for tour dates the same month, kicking off with two nights at Cafe OTO in London on 20-21 May.
