There is an instant charm to Andre Ethier’s new single, ‘Wild Goldfish’ and there's a shimmering subtlety to the light touch of his production style. On the one hand, we have vocal melodies that work perfectly over a light pseudo-folk accompaniment, but on the other, we have 8-bit sounds that are complemented by the innovative music video that comes alongside the track. “I don't think there are any wild goldfish, that's silly,” he says. “And I don't think there is a utopian feminist commune in northern BC, and even if there was, I don't think they would have any use for this guy. Anyhoo, he represents a certain delusional attitude that is in no way malicious but is maybe sweetly pathetic. It's how I imagine many men's voices sound to many women.” The track comes from his upcoming album, Further Up Island, due for release on May 28^th, 2021. -Dan Peeke
