After the release of their 2018 EP Slow Dancing Beyond the Silverdome, the purveyors of folk-influenced indie rock, and resident meme lords, Fragile Canyons are back with their new single leading up to the new album Here It Is which will be out later this month.
Playing like one long run-on existential thought, the album's title track "Here It Is" has the band waxing about the seemingly endless cycle of living in an imperfect world. Whether it's knowing that those in charge do not have your best interest in mind or having to take part despite knowing better, bandleader Andy Engstrom spends "Here It Is" wrestling with how flawed even the most responsible consumerism can be. Each chorus Engstrom comes to terms with this reality, and over a lilting, almost hypnotic instrumental Engstrom sings, "First accepting the blame / Then admit who you are / Where does your money come from."
Here It Is will be out on Friday, November 15, and Fragile Canyons will be playing an album release show at Day Block Brewing along with Anna Stine and Savannah Smith that same day. All proceeds from the album will go to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota.
