Today, the acclaimed Montreal-based songwriter and musician Helena Deland returns with Altogether Unaccompanied, Vol. V, the 2-track newest installment of her beloved series of EPs which she began releasing in 2018.
Helena Deland shares: “When I finished recording what I thought would be my first album, in 2017, I was faced with a miscellaneous bunch of songs. Instead of wiggling them into the expected format, I released them as a series of short EPs called Altogether Unaccompanied, volumes I-IV. Volume V is out today, and the series becomes an open-ended place for me to share songs which haven’t made it onto albums, or which seem to exist on their own, more or less unaccompanied.”
The release of Altogether Unaccompanied, Vol. V comes with a video for the track “Silver and Red” shot by Nik Arthur, capturing a timelapse view of a quiet brook fighting through winter ice.
