Navigate the Sky

Effortlessly harnessing their indie-pop youth with a breath of fresh air, the Toronto-based trio — Brendan DiStefano [singer], Shane Penhale [guitar], and Josh Podolak [drums, programming] — not only envision where they aspire to be, but collectively carry an established artistic history that placed them together today. Being no strangers to JUNO-nominated songwriter/producer Derek Hoffman (<a href="spotify:artist:3ShGiAyhxI6Rq3TknZ3gfk" data-name="Arkells">Arkells</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1Ss8sy3C3XXQgxYRwjDln8" data-name="Ralph">Ralph</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:2mCd5QO8EUB5rmbGUbCrTJ" data-name="The Trews">The Trews</a>), Navigate the Sky recorded their debut EP, &quot;Small Talk&quot;, during the spring of 2018. Throwback 808 drum machines, vintage synthesizers, and dreamy delay guitar samples filled the pre-production room, perfectly capturing the group&#39;s upbeat personality.

Fast forward two years, six songs later, the group has now amassed over 1 million streams worldwide, and shared the stage with today&#39;s brightest acts such as <a href="spotify:artist:3wyfo3svXNWnszGAEVey11" data-name="Tokyo Police Club">Tokyo Police Club</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3v9wPA58IVrX2dg6AjSPgi" data-name="Virginia To Vegas">Virginia To Vegas</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1DIr8qPcgJS50FFNfC3nnp" data-name="Honors">Honors</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3jERgGiTwNAPxNmDasAb31" data-name="Tyler Shaw">Tyler Shaw</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:2UQ6mFkiLYy5VHRJnajQYT" data-name="Neon Dreams">Neon Dreams</a>, and many more.
