Combine the Victorious - Love Ballad - new Video and single

 

For the first time, Combine the Victorious has released a new single in partnership with Thorvald Records from Los Angeles, California.  On Feb 11 2022 a double A-side featuring the songs Love Ballad and Thunder was released worldwide.

A massive benefit of this partnership has been the introduction to Steven R. Gilmore, graphic artist extraordinaire (he's done covers for artists such as Skinny Puppy, Grapes of Wrath, A Perfect Circle and countless others) whose art now graces our cover. The incredible image and layout is so engaging and inspiring it seems to elevate the music to new level!

In addition to the new double A side release there is also a new video for the song Love Ballad. Filmed on location at the Isabelle Dunlop Clothing Store the video is a depiction of a fairly typical day for Isabelle. She meets her customer, as portrayed by actress/model Carmel Amit, discusses designing a dress for her and then we see her go to work. The Isabelle Dunlop Clothing Store is featured throughout the video, with loving depiction of the design studio in the back of the shop.

Combine on Fiona Forbes' show Onstage (basement tapes live)

Combine the Victorious appeared on Fiona Forbes' show Onstage this week. They duo had a great conversation with Fiona from the Isabelle Dunlop Clothing store to talk about the shutdown, setting private appointments, and of course music. After the interview Combine performed five songs that were previously recorded in the basement of their house. Included here for the first time is their song "What's Going On In Your Head" as well as favorites "Smoke and Choke" and an acoustic piano version of "Embrace."

RIML: Lights

We had such a  good time filming this interview with Lights.  This artist is  talented, motivated, and hard working - putting out a six part graphic novel, which she wrote and drew, as well as a full length album which accompanies the artwork, correlating the story between the music and artwork.

Filmed at the Isabelle Dunlop Clothing Store, 4158 Main Street Vancouver, BC, Canada last week just on the brink of Lights beginning a world tour.
