Biography

Yes We Mystic was many things in its decade of existence. In the beginning, it was a group of high schoolers making music in a basement in Winnipeg, Canada; in a few short years it had become an internationally-touring musical powerhouse being praised as “art pop transformers” (Julijana Capone, BeatRoute). Shortly thereafter the band’s longtime rehearsal space, reborn as House of Wonders, became the heart of off-kilter indie music in Winnipeg as frontman Adam Fuhr became a sought-after producer. And, in 2022, they returned as art-rock veterans for the release of their third and final album, Trust Fall. 
 For a time, the band’s return was uncertain. As they approached their tenth year together, it became clear that their singularly-focused and hard-touring days had come to an end. In the earliest days of 2021, the band considered calling it quits all together, rather than suffer a slow decline in the focus of their meticulous and ever-layered work. 
 In the end, it was their new songs that had the final say. Sensing that they were in the middle of writing the strongest material of their career, the members made a pact to extend the life of the band, then redoubled their efforts to perfect their sound before parting ways. 
 Trust Fall was recorded over 36 days at House of Wonders. The ten song album is the band’s most cohesive and nuanced work, a seesaw of stark, tender vulnerability and frenzied bombast. It arrived October 21st on DevilDuck Records.
