Rich Aucoin releases new album United States, and video for “Walls”
Based in Halifax, NS, indie rock musician Rich Aucoin has released his new album United States, along with a music video “Walls.”
The Halifax Chronicle Herald has said the album is “peppered with Beach Boy harmonies, ’70s soul grooves and dance beats that move the body while his lyrical pleas move the mind. …powerful, motivational.” Aucoin wrote United States while cycling across 12 US states for Mental Health America and the Canadian Mental Health Association. Each song on the album is related to one of the 12 states he pedalled through—from Los Angeles, down the coast, across the south and finishing up in New York City. Below is a tracklist and the states the songs relate to:
1 Kayfabe – CA
2 How it Breaks – AZ
3 Red Rocks – NM
4 Dopamine – TX
5 Reset – OK
6 This is it. – AR
7 Civil – TN
8 Trip – VA
9 Walls – DC
10 Blue Highways – PA
11 Eulogy of Regret – NJ
12 American Dream – NY
Along with the album, the video for “Walls” was also released—paying homage to 22 iconic music videos such as clips from Beyonce, Weird All, Queen, Nirvana and more.

I’m Shayla, and I was born in Saskatoon but moved to Halifax in 2013 for University, and since decided to stay here for a while. I recently received a Bachelor of Design, after studying photography for a year or two as well. I love everything about music and how it has the ability to bring so many people together from across the country and even the world. My passion for music is one of the reasons I moved East to pursue a photography and design career, as I would love to do graphic design and photography within the Canadian music industry.
