Fabric & Dayda Banks Releasing Their New Album "Leaving Neverland" in October
September 29, 2020
On October 2nd, Fabric and Dayda Banks will release their collaborative project "Leaving Neverland". The project was written and based around the idea that we we've all been chasing a paradise of our own in a race against the clock. We're all getting older, but many of us really don’t want to grow up. We keep evolving while maintaining a connection with our roots and original ways of thinking. Creating music at its essence is self expression in one of its purest forms. Both Fabric and Dayda are very authentic in the way they create their art, so by listening in you get a little slice of their personality and spirit which is a beautiful thing.
Leaving Neverland was produced by Fabric and written by both artists. This is Dayda’s 9th release and Fabric’s 2nd. Fabric previously released a project way back in 2012, so Leaving Neverland is a bit of a reintroduction for him. Dayda and Fabric were friends for many years before embarking on a professional project together, and so the process for them working together is very fluid and creative, and it shows. The end result is a captivating 10 song project layered with beautiful instrumentals and thought provoking lyrics. We welcome you to join us on the musical journey of Leaving Neverland October 2, 2020.

December 19, 2019

This project was created, recorded, and mastered at The Last Astronauts studio in Saskatoon, SK.

New Single from Dayda Banks - Turn Off All the Lights
October 22, 2019
Saskatchewan's Dayda Banks is back with a brand new song release. On October 23rd, 2019 he will be releasing his brand new single " Turn Off All the Lights".
This is a follow up collaboration between Dayda and Sask producer Trill Monroe after their July EP release of "We Should go to Japan". Trill created a simplistic acoustic style melody over boom-bap drums that Dayda rolls through from start to finish with his deep thoughtful lyricism. The verses are written with a raw emotion you can really resonate with while still finding the song very easy to listen to. The chorus is simple, catchy and effective. Turn Off All the lights is dedicated to "The blond haired green eyed girl from North Carolina". While she may be unknown, its not hard to tell how much Dayda cares for her. This song was produced at Saskatoon's Paved Arts Studio with audio engineer Dillybat Productions.
