Примечание: We Are The City mark their musical return with their forthcoming, fifth full-length album, RIP. This new record, hinted at when last years's innovative AT NIGHT was released, is an interconnected companion album with RIP acting as the prog-pop counterpoint to AT NIGHT's more experimental exploration. We Are The City spent two years crafting the sweeping RIP, an emotive prog-pop opus, masterfully mixed by JUNO-winner Matty Green (The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Paul McCartney), and three additional tunes were mixed by Steve Bays (Hot Hot Heat, Mounties). RIP is filled with anthems and intimate examinations of mortality. As evidenced in the title, RIP's thematic focus was inspired by a childhood friend, Kyle Tubbs of the band Fields of Green, who passed away during the sessions. Kyle was a brilliant and undiscovered musical talent who was a close collaborator during We Are the City's early years - whenever writing music, the guys would ask themselves, "What would Kyle do?" Singer-keyboardist Cayne McKenzie, drummer Andrew Huculiak and guitarist David Menzel started We Are The City way back when they were teenagers, and in the decade-plus since then, they’ve used the project as an outlet for their wildest creative whims. They’ve unveiled masked alter-egos (2011’s High School EP), created an album with an accompanying Norwegian-language feature film (2013’s Violent), and staged a live stream of their recording sessions (2015’s Above Club). These days, however, they’re happy to let their art do all the talking. We Are The City will be on tour in Europe in early 2020
