whold by whold
recorded, mixed and mastered primarily in apartments in Kitchener and Toronto, Ontario + sporadically throughout the fall of 2015 (with few 'emergency' comps, and 'kinda funny' from winter 2016).
I would like to thank everyone for their infinite support, guidance and love including:
the entire Shelton/Murphy/Sheldon clan, Margot Couse, Hippo, Morty, Tasker Hull, Brendan Moore, Keith J McManamen, Michael Hull, and Jeffron de Savoye
Thank goodness for backups.
I lost all of these tracks (exlcuding poorly mastered exports) in the winter of 2016 when my primary hard drive crashed. Thankfully I backed everything up on a 64gb microSD I could not locate after moving back to Toronto from Kitchener, Ontario for sometime.
A lesson was learned:
Always backup, and never be so ashamed of yourself and what you create
Love,
Kaleb Shelton

whold the band:
A not-so-quiet contemplative solo album turned into a power-trio, whold runs the gamut from slow lo-fi grooves to pop-grunge-art-rock with sweeping delayed and chorus/phased driven guitars, an emphasis on bass melodies mixed with straight-to-the-point harmonized phrases exploring uncertainty, and sacrifice in today's age of myth
