Partner is made up of Josée Caron on guitar and vocals, Lucy Niles on bass and vocals and Simone TB on drums. The band have been active for a number of years now, Josée and Lucy met at university in New Brunswick in 2014, and by 2020 Partner has put out two full-length albums and one EP. They gained notoriety in 2018, when they won the SOCAN Signwriting Prize for their song “Playing The Field”.
Their first album In Search Of Lost Time (2017) had a late 90’s / early 2000’s rock sound to it – one could compare their old stuff to a mix of American Hifi and Wheatus. However, over the years the band have developed a more classical rock sound, taking inspiration from great Canaidan bands like Rush, and you can hear it throughout the latest album Never Give Up (2020).
I got to chat with the band while they were taking a break from recording in a studio in BC. We talk about the formation of the band and how Simone eventually got involved – Simone is an extremely accomplished session drummer who also plays in another amazing band U.S. Girls. We also chat a lot about the new album and the even newer material they are currently working on.
