As much as their first album was about living in the musical moment, their follow-up, Wide Open, is about reflecting on moments at large. Weaves shed their improvisational tendencies in favor of more polished pop, and this swap pushes frontwoman Jasmyn Burke’s songwriting to the foreground.

The hotly anticipated follow-up to the Canadian indie pop outfit's Juno Award-and Polaris Music Prize-nominated 2016 debut, Wide Open is a more polished affair than its predecessor, but Weaves haven't lost their gift for pairing knotty sonic architecture with gale force charisma. That the band operates on her same cosmic wavelength goes a long way in making Wide Open work, which it does.
Weaves have announced a new album, Wide Open. It’s out October 6 via Buzz, Kanine, and Memphis Industries. Listen to the first song, and see the tracklist and artwork below.

Mit "Wide Open" legt das sympathische kanadische Quartett im Herbst 2017 bereits das zweite Album vor. Die Band selbst beschreibt den Sound des neuen Albums als Americana; sie versichert allerdings, dass Weaves noch immer am Indierock hänge und das Klangspektrum einfach etwas "erweitert" und "aufgeblasen" habe.
Weaves: Wide Open For their second album, Toronto art-rockers Weaves tightened up the formula of their debut, adding pop-informed melodies to their fuzzy guitars and barbed observations. The jangly perfection of Walkaway and acoustic inoffensiveness of Grass beautifully signal this new direction, while the T. Rex-infused, oddball glam of Slicked -imbued with a heavy dose of bubblegum-snapping attitude from vocalist and songwriter Jasmyn Burke-polishes up the best moments from their previous effort. Taking a spiritual cue from the socially-conscious but introspective approach of Bruce.
But Wide Open simply doesn’t explode in the same way as the debut; while Burke remains the jumble of nerves that I love and relate to so deeply, she’s surrounded by a more stable outfit, one less willing to expand and more content to contract. Indeed, Weaves showcase their accidental genius the most on their sneakiest and most contradictory of statements, ‘Scream’.
