Cut Flowers & Erika Werry

Cut Flowers are a six-piece collective with deep roots in Canada’s indie and alternative rock scenes. Members Kevan Byrne, Al Okada, and Geoff Walton previously played in King Cobb Steelie, the genre-defying band that recorded with Steve Albini (Nirvana), Bill Laswell (Herbie Hancock), and Guy Fixsen (My Bloody Valentine), and were twice nominated for a JUNO Award.Cut Flowers blend indie-rock grit, folk tenderness, and soulful melody – think R.E.M. crossed with Richard and Linda Thompson, spread with analog synth and a touch of Motown pulse. Their sound lives in the bittersweet space between joy and resignation, where impermanence blooms into song.
