Today is the day that our two-track session with Pretty arrives worldwide to streaming!

Filmed and recorded in the bank vault here at Safe Sounds by Desiree Das Gupta and Bill Cutbill, these two acoustic tracks are lush and enchanting. Listen on Spotify or your preferred streaming platform now, and don't forget to get out in the world and support your local music scene!

Pretty are a Toronto band with a psychedelic sound and philosophy, fusing distinctive, dark and frenzied sonic landscapes. The band currently consists of Torin Craig, Eliot Rossi, Will Macquarrie, Brian Heyes and Morgan Zych.

Speaking of the release, Torin of Pretty said –

"These two songs – “Inheritance” and “Worry” – were previously released on our album
Sertraline Dream (2020) and EP Citrus Magic (2023) respectively.

In between those two releases we started getting more into folk and acoustic music, and scheming about making an acoustic EP or album. Because our guitar amps wouldn’t fit into Safe Sounds’ vault, we thought it would be fun to try an acoustic performance, as it would be a more natural fit for the space, and gave us the chance to explore musical ground we hadn’t yet covered.

I’d also just add that it was a super fun time and a very vibey experience, we had a great time working with the Safe Sounds crew!"

If you've not yet seen it, please watch the video version of these tracks on our YouTube channel, which exist alongside many other unique sessions we've recorded from Toronto based musicians.

You can catch Pretty performing live this year. They're organising a mini run of shows with Silks, and are opening for the Budos Band on June 15th at the Phoenix in Toronto. Get out and bask in the sunshine of life.
