After two successfully released singles ‘You & Me’ and ‘Another Time’, together boasting over 1M streams on Spotify, CANVAS are back with another mesmerising follow-up: ‘Spell It Out’.

‘Spell It Out’ marks a step towards the warmth of Spring with melting snow and buds about to burst. The smooth chords are caressed by filtered vocals and contoured by the rattling hi-hats, creating a heartfelt sensation of both joy and sorrow. The track premiered on The 405 a moment ago, and can now be streamed below.

“This is our most intimate release so far and it shows a more personal side to us than ever”, say the CANVAS brothers.

CANVAS – are brothers, Andreas and Robin Schulz, with a background in hardcore bands, sneakers and skateboards. Their collaboration is a departure from the US punk rock scene – an electronic and soulful project, with a sense of Scandinavian melancholy spread across every beat.

With big bootlegs for Seinabo Sey and Shura under their belts and official remixes for Jessie Ware (50 Shades of Grey) and Andreas Moe (Kitsuné Soleil Mix) helping to position their own sound.  

‘Spell It Out’ is released on March 18th on all digital platforms released on With Love Recordings, a sub-imprint of Swedish record label HMWL.
