Vancouver indie folk-rock trio Myles from Home shares their new single “Van Trippin'” out now on all digital streaming platforms.
Led by visionary musician Myles Hildebrand, Myles from Home makes eclectic genre-bending music with roots in the dynamic world of funk and jazz blended with soothing folk-rock and melancholic lyricism. And those experimental vibes are on full display on new track Van Trippin’, taking the listener on a laid-back funky, groovy ride.
“This song was inspired by a weekend trip I did up a steep mountain road to a place called Jones Lake with a lady in her van,” says Myles. “All I wore was a hat and all she wore was a mushroom necklace and we had a blast. This song is about the endless opportunities of the open road. We experiment with alternative time signatures throughout and focus on making the grooves feel unusual but still natural.”
Defying convention is something that comes naturally to Myles from Home bandleader Myles Hildebrand. When he’s not playing music, he directs nuclear fusion strategic partnerships at his day job, which sheds some light on the varied nature of the band’s music.
Says Myles:
“When I tell folks in the music industry what I do for a ‘day job’, they often don’t believe me. When I tell folks in the fusion energy community I’m in a band, they look at my work outfits and nod in agreement. Ultimately, music is just longitudinal pressure oscillations and we hope you dig the ones we make.”
Known for their highly energetic and entertaining live show, Myles from Home has been described as “getting festival rhythms going right away,” even when in a club. Catch them touring around Canada as they lead up to the release of their debut album in 2025.
Van Trippin’ is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For tour dates and more information, please visit HERE.
