Tallies unveil new version of “Special” featuring Michael Peter Olsen on cello

The Toronto-based band, Tallies have shared a new version of their recent single, “Special,” featuring Michael Peter Olsen on cello. It’s a new version of the track that was released initially as part of their second album, Patina which is out now via Kanine Records (US), Hand Drawn Dracula (Canada), and Bella Union (UK/EU). The band is set to hit the road this fall in the UK and Europe, ticking off a string of shows, including a stop at Rolling Stone Beach with Black Country New Road, RIDE, and Teenage Fanclub.

Coming produced by Graham Walsh (of Holy Fuck, previously helmed records by METZ and Alvvays) alongside Dylan Frankland of the band at Palace Sound, Baskitball 4 Life and Candle Recording in Toronto, the recent album, Patina arrives as a true labor of love; one that was delayed due to the pandemic but ultimately marks a truly rewarding collection for the band. Upon sharing the music with labels, it pricked the ears of Cocteau Twins’ Simon Raymonde – a hero of the band – who signed Tallies to his Bella Union label, providing “a light at the end of a dark tunnel,” according to Sarah Cogan of the band.

Watch the video for “Special” below and stay up to date with Tallies via their socials.

Tallies, who have previously opened for the likes of The Ocean Blue, Sloan, Mudhoney, Tim Burgess, and Hatchie, is made up of founding members guitarist Dylan Frankland and singer/guitarist Sarah Cogan. They are joined by drummer Cian O’Neill.
