Throughout the last 20 years, David Vertesi has worked with some of Canada’s most exciting indie-rock projects. First and foremost as a founding member of Juno-nominated indie-pop band, Hey Ocean!, while also having played live with artists like Shad, Said The Whale, Dear Rouge, and Hannah Georgas. More recently you will find him producing for emerging favourites like Haley Blais, Noble Son, Riun Garner and more. As a songwriter and producer, Vertesi always brings a uniquely sensuous and brooding sensibility, an intricate sonic depth that multiplies the layers of a song.
In his solo work, these dramatic flairs ignite on full display. His latest LP Fictionalized, is the clearest synthesis of his wide-ranging pop philosophy yet. Effectively a concept album on the collective spiraling of the pandemic years through an intensely personal lens, Vertesi crafts the most potent and memorable melodies of his career. With featured performances from a lineup of some of Vancouver’s brightest talents: Jordan Klassen, Haley Blais, Jill Barber, and Sam Lynch, plus co-production from the likes of Jonathan Anderson (Andy Shauf, Aidan Knight), Klassen (Dear Rouge, Jillian Lake) and Daniel Klenner (Peach Pit, Babe Corner), Fictionalized marks a new and defined landscape for Vertesi. As powerful and personal as he’s ever been, as cathartic and kind as he’s ever appeared.
