Partner, the “mature” effort of two best friends named Josée Caron and Lucy Niles, have released the latest video from their September 2017 album, In Search of Lost Time.
Borne of their bizarre and fortuitous friendship, Partner confidently harnesses the infinite power of Rock to explore a variety of niche yet strangely universal themes.
The two met while attending Mount Allison University in small town Sackville, New Brunswick, on Canada’s East Coast. The duo played in numerous Sackville bands together over their University years (Yellowteeth, The Mouthbreathers and the aptly named hardcore band Go Get Fucked). Around late 2014 the idea of Partner came to fruition.
Influenced by acts as varied as Melissa Etheridge, Ween, kd lang, and Prince, Partner delivers a refreshing and vital twist on a classic, prompting you to re-think what you thought was possible in Rock.
Partner relocated to Windsor ON at the beginning of 2016. After a freakishly productive year of writing, recording, and touring, Partner released their debut album to the world last year. Their enthusiastic and action-packed live set has led to them being named the “best new band in Canada” in the Globe and Mail and their album made the best of 2017 lists for NPR’s All Songs Considered, Stereogum, Noisey, Exclaim, CBC Music, Playboy to name but a few.
Good morning!
Hi!
Hello hello! Partner is playing DC in April, I might have to check them out. I really liked Everybody Knows.
janet, I think you should. There’s a buzz about them, and buzzes are often (usually?) to be heeded.
It’s a weeknight show, which can be difficult for me to manage, but the fun of a live show, and a buzzed about band are a real enticement
Yort looooves Partner.
They definitely have some buzz going on. Another band I just missed seeing here on Thursday.
Yeah, and janet, it’s good to do something like that every now and then. It’s good for the spirit, for the whole person really, even if perhaps a little hard on the bod.
Out
More new music from friends of the blog The Low Joy Ceiling!

Also, the band is selling copies of their EP on Friday, out of one of the member’s cars if Twitter is to be believed. I wonder if I can get them to mail me one?
@janet – I might be able to manage to find them if they won’t send you one. No promises.
CD or vinyl?
@Darbar – even if you can’t, I appreciate the offer.
@Russ – CD. Signed by Aaron
*squeeee*
Oh Aaron is delivering but he might be in Saskatoon.

His tweet didn’t mention a location as to where his car would be
@janet – I am sure they will send you one if you ask. Let me know, and I will investigate further.
@Darbar – Thank you, I’ll let you know 🙂
Sounds kinda like the Breeders.
I’m envious of Mr Fussy Font, who is going to see the Breeders. That’d be fun
Hello
I’ll just be over here if anybody wants me :'(
Hey! Ho! Are you there?
