LINDY VOPNFJÖRD

Born into the Icelandic community in Manitoba, Lindy Vopnfjörd started his music career early. By four, he was singing cautionary songs about nuclear war and traveling around with his musician parents and extended family in a bus. The digital release of his most recent album, his career seventh, called Young Waverer was on February 26, 2013. Ambitiously recorded via crowdfunding and only available via iTunes or Lindy’s website, it is a soaring landscape of stream of consciousness stories about love and loss, alongside unique tales about his upbringing on icy Lake Winnipeg.

Bulgarian born producer/composer/solo artist, close friend and music collaborator Todor Kobakov sharpens the production pencil and draws a definitive mark in the mind with the twelve tracks (he also contributes piano). An impressive Canadian musical collective also brings their talents to Young Waverer in Luke Doucet who contributes guitar to a handful of songs and Thomas D’Arcy formerly of Small Sins and Major Maker who played bass, as did other Major Maker-mates Stephen Krecklo and Ian LeFeuvre (Kathleen Edwards, k-os) and John Obercian (Sarah Harmer). Young Waverer was mixed by Grammy nominated John O’Mahony (Metric, Coldplay, U2) at Electric Lady Studios in New York City.
