Canyons Need You

We're working on a new video for the Canyons song "When I See You Again".

The video will be comprised of tonnes of different clips of memories and life moments over the ages.
If you have any film footage - riding a bike, running on the beach, kissing, eating, getting married, being sick, flying, swimming, crying, you name it - we need it. Whatever it was shot on, videotape, Super 8, SLR, MINI-DV, it's all good, in fact the weirder the better.

We'll digitise and return your footage as it came, so please don't forget to include YOUR address - OUR address below!

Win: tickets to the Canyons secret warehouse party this Saturday

On the lead-up to the release of their debut LP, Keep Your Dreams, the Canyons boys are going to be throwing down some classic hits at an intimate warehouse party this weekend in their (adopted) hometown of Sydney.

The 'One Night Stand' secret show will be happening somewhere in Sydney's inner-west, with attendees notified via email of the exact location the day before the event. In true house party style, it's BYO and there's no cut-off time, with the night kicking off at 10pm and continuing on until people can party no more (or Canyons run out of records). It's organisers have also decided to make it a 'freaks' themed night, inviting people to dress up in costume of "whatever FREAK means to you".

Watch: Canyons - Circadia / Under A Blue Sky

Australian duo Canyons today announce their long-awaited debut album, Keep Your Dreams, due for global release in November this year on Modular Recordings.

The first taste of the forthcoming album is a mission statement of sorts - 'Circadia / Under A Blue Sky' unfurls itself expansively with seething synth lines, before giving in to the call of the wild and going full throttle into a haze of sandblasted saxophone, tribal drums, and jungle incantations.

Close your eyes, feel the sun on your face, dance inside and out.

Canyons

Canyons' story is one of intrigue and mystery, one that can be traced back to the Nether Valley in the outer regions of the Western Australian landscape. Ryan Grieve and Leo Thomson began making music separately, under various guises, before coming together as Canyons.
