Victoria BC quintet Aidan Knight
and their namesake songwriter who will make their Detroit debut, Aug. 9th at the
Garden Bowl in support of their U.S. debut album, Small Reveal,
which arrived in stores July 23rd. Small Reveal is a gorgeous
and lush album that swoons and swells around Knight's captivating baritone.
As a songwriter, Knight explores the minute details of life, and the
middle stories, plunging the listener into the midst of the lives of others.
The album presents the themes of inward thought and creativity,
escapism, longing for success, and belonging. Small
Reveals was written over a fortnight in a rural cabin in British
Columbia, then recorded in ten days in ten different locations throughout
Victoria, with producer Jonathan Anderson, each providing a unique charm and
character to the song. Released in Canada in late 2012, the album garnered
critical acclaim across the country. The nationally syndicated Sun
Media stated, “Knight’s delicately restless self-explorations
resonate on a much larger level…brilliantly executed.” While Under
The Radar declared, “Their songs have impressive depth for such humble scale…
Shearwater fans should instantly find their appeal.”
