Royal Canoe[1] is a Canadian indie pop band from Winnipeg and Steinbach, Manitoba.

History[edit]

The band formed in 2010 from members of Manitoba bands The Waking Eyes, The Liptonians and TELE.[2][3] They have toured with Alt-J and Bombay Bicycle Club.[4] In 2014, Royal Canoe was nominated for Alternative Album of the Year at the Juno Awards. They also opened for Bombay Bicycle Club on their So Long, See You Tomorrow tour.[5]

On 2 February 2013 Royal Canoe performed Beck's Song Reader project in full at the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra's New Music Festival.[6][7] (Beck released Song Reader on sheet music without a recorded version.)

Solo projects[edit]

In 2016, keyboardist Matthew Schellenberg composed, performed and produced songs for the soundtrack to the film Lovesick.[8] At the 5th Canadian Screen Awards in 2017, he received a nomination for Best Original Song for "Draw Blood".[9][10]

Matt Peters along with Tom Keenan formed the Winnipeg Chamber-pop ensemble Heavy Bell. In January 2018 they released the album By Grand Central Station, a tribute to Canadian author Elizabeth Smart's 1945 novel By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept.[11]
