Formed in Toronto in early 2025, Cut Flowers are a six-piece collective with deep roots in Canada’s indie and alternative rock scenes. Members Kevan Byrne, Al Okada, and Geoff Walton previously played in King Cobb Steelie, the genre-defying band that recorded with Steve Albini (Nirvana), Bill Laswell (Herbie Hancock), and Guy Fixsen (My Bloody Valentine), and were twice nominated for a JUNO Award.
Byrne, Peter Kirkpatrick, and Iain Thomson also shared history in Heimlich Maneuver, a proto-grunge band that once opened for Mudhoney, Volcano Suns, and Nirvana, while Rebecca Campbell – a longtime Toronto-based vocalist and songwriter – has collaborated with Jane Siberry, Fat Man Waving, and Sultans of String. Kirkpatrick’s past credits also include time with Tristan Psionic, and Thomson previously drummed for Loomer.
Together, Cut Flowers blend indie-rock grit, folk tenderness, and soulful melody – think R.E.M. crossed with Richard and Linda Thompson, spread with analog synth and a touch of Motown pulse. Their sound lives in the bittersweet space between joy and resignation, where impermanence blooms into song.
