Биография

With a kiss to your third eye, 5th PROJEKT returns with, The Wolf, an adventurous EP released March 7th, 2023 via their own independent label, Organik Rekords. This is the first in a trilogy: The Wolf, The Owl (2024), & The Bee (TBA). The Toronto cinematic art-rock band takes us on a mystical journey through ancient lands, painting with psychedelic sound. Flowing effortlessly from avant pop and dreamy shoegaze, to video game drum & bass, into progressive krautrock, each song is a spell bound by the haunting vocals of Tara Rice. The music was written, composed, produced & recorded by Rice & Sködt McNalty, both multi-instrumentalists. This trilogy of EPs was inspired by 40 days hiking together under the Milky Way along ley lines of The Camino. The album title was inspired by the encounter Rice & McNalty had with a wolf in the wild on their journey. Field recordings from their travels weave an immersive first-hand experience throughout the visceral collection of songs. The singles, Vagabond & The Wrong Way were featured in Obscure Sound, Spill Magazine, V13, Canadian Beats, From the Straight, and other local and intl publications. Their previous EP, The Labyrinth, enjoyed 11 weeks on Top 30 college radio charts across Canada (Top 10 in Guelph & Windsor). The band has received award nominations from Toronto, Ontario and California. The band’s captivating live presence has led them to play NXNE, Cdn Music Week, Indie Week, Kaleidoscope and Spirits of the Earth.
