Etiquette is a new band, but its members are anything but new to Canadian music fans. The project is a collaboration by real-life couple Graham Walsh and Julie Fader. Walsh is best known as a member of Holy F--k, as well as for his work as producer and engineer, having lent his studio talents to albums by Alvvays, Metz, Viet Cong and Hannah Georgas. Fader is a visual artist, keyboard player and singer, who released her first solo album, Outside In, in 2009, and has provided keys and backing vocals for acts like Chad VanGaalen, Great Lakes Swimmers and Sarah Harmer.
And yet, Etiquette's debut is nothing like what you'd expect based on its members' previous output. It's full of slow, pulsing, dreamy synth clouds and melancholy lyrics, with the occasional blast of uptempo, dancefloor-ready electro to change things up.
