Teagan Johnston / Skye Wallace
Formerly known as Little Coyote, Teagan Johnston, is a multidisciplinary artist
and singer-songwriter who drives the genre beyond its current borders, bringing
a radical rawness to her work that hits you in your heart.
A seasoned and experienced live performer, at home playing solo or backed by a
band, Teagan has toured Japan, North America and Europe, including
performing a special set at David Lynch’s prestigious private Paris nightclub Silencio.
With a voice like a soaring instrument, unflinching lyricism, and a swaggering live show shaped by years on the road, Skye Wallace is a force on a mission to celebrate life and welcome everyone in on the immersive experience.
The Act of Living, Wallace’s head-turning record came out on Tiny Kingdom Nov 1st (not coincidentally a day honouring spirits and endings in many cultures). It is all at once energizing, grinding, brittle, and electric; a sonic journey examining death and the ways it pushes life ever forward. The album nods to elements of Skye’s dark-folk past, mixed with the pure, unbridled enthusiasm of their live performances. In a co-producer role with counterpart Hawksley Workman, Skye sees her own vision come to life clearer than ever, inviting the listener through portals of near-death experiences, dream worlds and loss, while brandishing themes like the death of fear, death of reality, resilience and rebirth. Featuring songs that sound familiar yet refreshingly new, The Act of Living pushes the boundaries of expectation.
