RINGFINGER:

Formed in the summer of 2019, Ringfinger walk the blurry line between darkwave and post-punk. Equally inspired by cold Canadian winters, horror films of the past, and the forebears of their genre, they wield swirling chorused guitars amid synth pads and delay-drenched vocals. A duo backed by drum machines, Ringfinger consists of Hannah Dow-Kenny on bass, synthesizer, and vocals, and Mason McMorris on guitar, synthesizer, and vocals.

“A rush of intricate guitars, saturnine vocals and hella atmospheric production. Crucial listening.” IDie:YouDie

“Their music rings out like a mournful hymn echoing from a long-lost catacomb, a call to those whose hearts beat in sync with the darker, more profound harmonies of life." -Post-Punk

Fans of classic goth bands such as Clan of Xymox, The Cure, Lycia, and Sisters of Mercy, as well as contemporaries such as Twin Tribes, She Past Away, Drab Majesty, Kælan Mikla, and Ritual Howls would enjoy the music of Ringfinger.

JΔKΟB:

JΔKΟB has a passion for blending evocative sounds and avante-garde releases; all with a distinctly dark, moody, yet alluring atmosphere. Taking inspiration from the radical and rebellious origins of punk and electronic music and the dark music genres their union spawned, he gravitates towards tracks with disco heavy rhythms, reverb drenched snares, sequence driven synths, and brooding, introspective lyrics. With a preference for all things analog, he often chooses selections from his diverse collection of vinyl that spans the sub-genres of the gothic music canon. JΔKΟB’s eclectic sets can simultaneously evoke a nostalgic yearning for the past, while igniting a burning desire for the future.
