GreenWing unveils a live video for their single, “Late Bloomer”
GreenWing are proud to announce the release of a live-off-the-floor performance video for their song “Late Bloomer.” This performance was recorded on July 19th, 2022, and its release is a follow-up to the release of the band’s debut album, also titled Late Bloomer. The video was shot by Saul Chabot at Millimedia and recorded/mixed by Matt Stinn at Rainy Day Recording Co.
“I think a large portion of what makes this band special is our energy when we get in a room or on a stage together. Working with Saul on this video and feeling like our energy was truly being matched by him was the best way we knew to capture that same energy and show people what we’re all about.” – Say’s vocalist, Matt Stinn.
“Late Bloomer” draws influence from the likes of fellow Canadians, Pup and The Dirty Nil, as well as drawing comparison to Fidlar and Weezer. GreenWing self-produced their album at singer/guitarist Matt Stinn’s studio, Rainy Day Recording Co., with mastering by Trevor Case at Case Mastering. The album features rich, layered indie production contrasted with a weight that hits the listener square in the chest.
Established in 2021, the band’s early days saw them living through Covid lockdowns and the harsh Saskatchewan winter while finding sanity through collaborating on a collection of songs and the hopes of one day returning to stages and touring. “Late Bloomer” leans heavily on driving rhythms and pop-laden hooks, reminiscent of the punk and post-rock they grew up listening to while incorporating themes of self-reflection, grief, and a newfound sense of self.
Once lockdowns lifted, GreenWing quickly made a name for themselves with tour dates that featured their signature singalong hooks, infectious driving energy, and chaotic stage presence. Look for GreenWing touring across Canada in early 2022 in support of Late Bloomer.
