    West My Friend's third album, with artwork by Sarah Clement. Produced by David Travers-Smith.

    "One of the sweetest and most elegant folk albums released this year... "
    - The Georgia Straight

    "Quiet Hum makes a mockery of the ‘difficult third album’ notion, instead cementing West My Friend’s place in Canada’s modern folk elite. It is an outstanding release and their most moving material to date, yet only four years since their debut it feels like West My Friend are still gathering speed, with plenty more innovative Cascadian third-wave indie prog chamber folk-roots music set to be unveiled in years to come."
    - David Morrison, Folk Radio UK

lyrics

You’ve taught me all the hard hard lessons
You’ve taught me the hard hard lessons
Like how to get bitten by a wasp on the knee
And how to lose at chess gracefully
How to tell stories to spite the fear
And how to hold your loved ones near
You’ve taught me how to miss someone who’s still here

Gradient graceful tell me
Tell me who does know, who knows
When an infant becomes?
Gradient graceful tell me
Tell me do you know, do you
When you’ve come undone?

West My Friend image

West My Friend Victoria, British Columbia

In the modern musical landscape, it’s rare to hear something as put-together as three-piece Cascadian folk outfit West My Friend - something so layered, deeply symphonic, baroque, and mysterious in its own winking way while still courting an edge of disaster. Simple is safe, but complex is fiery, intricate, and ultimately more rewarding. ... more
