Crown Lands

Crown Lands are born storytellers. Advocates for the LGBTQ+ and indigenous communities.
Counter-culturalists for the 21st century, informed by a cocktail of ancient voices, social
injustice, science-fiction, and musical narrators from Rush to Paul Simon, Led Zeppelin to
John Butler. Since meeting in 2015 at a band audition, singer/drummer Cody Bowles and guitarist/keyboardist Comeau have
cultivated a diverse sonic and lyrical palette. Touchstones range from the mistreatment of
Canada’s indigenous population to Buddhist meditation master Chögyam Trungpa, the
worlds of J.R.R. Tolkien and Dune author Frank Herbert.

Originally, they got their foot in the door with raw blues rock, on their Juno-nominated, 2020
self-titled LP, working with Grammy nominated Dave Cobb. This paved the way for an
introduction to three of Crown Lands heroes: Terry Brown, Nick Raskulinecz, and David
Bottrill – all prolific producers that worked with them on their breakthrough track “Context:
Fearless Pt. 1,” which premiered on Rolling Stone. After a steady stream of new music, the
band’s fresh approach and mission-driven catalogue garnered them the 2021 Juno Award
for “Breakthrough Group of the Year.”

With the latest instalment of tour dates and stacked with new music, Crown Lands are ready
to bring elegant, clever, progressive rock to the masses.
