BOOKLET

What is life but an endless series of "uh oh"s? From our earliest childhood accidents to our most overwhelming adult anxieties, it's a little phrase that looms large throughout our existence. Just ask Montreal indie-pop maestro Patrick Watson who was recently faced with the biggest "uh oh" a professional singer could endure.One morning in the winter of 2023, Patrick woke up to discover that his voice-the angelic instrument that propelled 2006's carnivalesque art-rock opus Close to Paradise to the Polaris Music Prize winner's podium -had gone completely kaputt. "Obviously, I like singing for people, but I was really enjoying my Modular [synth] and diving into instrumental music"-a natural inclination for Patrick, who's composed over 15 film scores to date. "But then I was like, 'Oh, it'd be cool to write songs for all these different singers that I really want to hear sing-I'll find my way out of this situation that way.' Because my voice wasn't supposed to come back. And when it did, I just thought having all these other singers was still a cooler idea for a record than me singing."
