CLUB CADETTA RELEASE SELF-TITLED EP FEATURING ELECTRIC SINGLE “TALKING TO MYSELF”
Indie rock outfit Club Cadetta are charting their own path with the release of their debut, self-titled EP Club Cadetta, and its magnetic lead single “Talking to Myself,” both out now on all streaming platforms.
The Brampton/Mississauga-based four-piece—Timour Adjiev (guitar, vocals), Ethan MacKinnon (keys, vocals), Declan Lune (bass, keyboards), and Callum Gibson (drums, backing vocals)—craft their sound with reverence for the past and an eye on the future. Pulling influence from The Beatles, Dylan, Thundercat, Wilco, and beyond, the band has steadily built a vibe that’s nostalgic, fresh, and relentlessly earnest.
“Talking to Myself” was tracked at The Orange Lounge in Toronto with mixing engineer Spencer Sunshine, marking a milestone for the band.
“Even leaving the studio after our first session, [Spencer] had sent us the ‘End of Day’ mix of ‘Talking to Myself.’ We listened to it on the drive home, and we were in awe of how good it sounded,” the band recalls.
It was also during that session that they crossed paths with Joe Jonas, who was working in another room—an unlikely yet memorable cameo in Club Cadetta’s unfolding story.
The EP brings together earlier singles with three new tracks, recorded across a range of studios—Recording Arts Canada, 412 Studios, Catherine North Studios, and The Orange Lounge—each adding a new hue to their sonic palette. From the meditative layers of “Service Waltz” to the horn-tinged grooves of “Riddle” featuring saxophonist Michael Lewis, every track is stitched with intention and soul.
“Creating this EP has been a real journey for us,” the band reflects. “Since recording our first single ‘It Starts Again,’ we’ve learned a lot about our process, and about recording in general. We love every crowd we get to play in front of, no matter the size… we get closer and closer to being a better band than we were last show.”
With dynamic performances and a debut EP that balances youthful energy and thoughtful songwriting, Club Cadetta are ready to leave the basement and step fully into the indie rock spotlight.
