biographical info

Two years can go by in the blink of an eye, or can stretch into a prolonged series of cross-country tours, weddings, funerals, rehearsals, odd jobs and getting your drivers license. Just ask Aidan Knight, the 25 year old songwriter and namesake of the Victoria-based band who unveil their second album Small Reveal on October 23rd


Knight and his collaborators (Julia Wakal, Colin Nealis, David Barry and Olivier Clements) created the swirling cinematics of Small Reveal in a whirlwind 10 days in 10 different recording spaces. Small Reveal presents songs about songwriting, escapism in characters, and the oftentimes, fleeting nature of creativity. The result is an exciting yet dreamy, lushly-arranged record that swells and ebbs around the captivating focal point of Knight’s voice. “We created something personal but omniscient, something ragged but polished, something that was reflective of what it means to spend a year crafting something that isn't revealed until the very last day. Unhurried. This is an album of music about creating music, the escapism in it and the uncomfortable honesty that hopefully shows itself.”

Hey Friends, I'm at home in Victoria, listening to my cat whine after just running around the house, getting let outside, freezing his lil tail off, and then coming back inside. Hard to please. Yeesh. I also made a Mac 'N Grilled Cheese tonight (Mac 'N Cheese INSIDE a Grilled Cheese Sandwich) I tried to trick my body into feeling fancy with aged white cheddar, paprika, and sprouted grain bread. I love to imagine me outside of my body, giving myself a high-five and a knowing wink. Mmm. Here's the point of the message, though: I have 2 new songs on the page: Side A "Friendly Fires" and Side B "Lambics" from my new 7" EP/Single. I really love having a little vinyl record, I can't wait to share it with everyone this Winter, Spring and beyond. Now he's eating my blueberry yogurt. What a brat! Aidan
