Grizzly Coast is the musical project of Toronto based indie-rock musician Alannah Kavanagh.

Her background as a poet, mixed with her lifelong affinity for playing music led her to blend

the two mediums on her singles, Half-Light Boy and Zuzu’s Petals.

 

Formerly performing as an acoustic singer-songwriter, Grizzly Coast showcases both an expansion into full-band indie rock territory and a commitment to free falling deeper into her lyricism on the song. In 2019, she is set to release a string of singles to promote her anticipated full-length LP.

 

Alannah Kavanagh says:

​

"My new single, “Half-Light Boy,” is about the sobering realization that not every person you encounter will have the same heart as you. Someone else’s lack of care for you is often due to something lacking in them – it is never an expression of what you deserve.

 

I was walking home from the grocery store one evening, lugging way too many bags for one girl to carry comfortably. Passing by a venue, I

noticed that someone who once held a big place in my life was

playing a show there that very night.

 

There was a time when I felt close to this person. Having always been one of their biggest supporters, not getting an invite to their show that was right

in my neighbourhood left me feeling pretty small. I went home and

wrote this new song as a confrontation that I knew I would never

bother to actually have.

 

My friend, Taylor Lucas, produced “Half-Light Boy” in his home studio. He also produced my previous single, “Zuzu’s Petals,” and is

set to produce my album. It’s always fun working with Taylor; he’s

so talented and has great ideas!"
