Octoberman will be releasing a brand new album featuring the talents of co-producer Jim Guthrie (Islands, Human Highway, Royal City) and appearances by members of FemBots, Two-Minute Miracles, Wilderness of Manitoba, and the expert mixing of Howie Beck (Hayden, Jason Collett) sometime this fall.

Their last album's song "Trapped in the New Scene" was featured on Prime Time TV Series "Grey's Anatomy". Praise from Pitchfork, Uncut and Now Magazine, appearing at the SXSW, Pop Montreal, Sled Island and CMJ festivals and extensively touring North America, UK and Europe.

Language-Arts have toured extensively around the west coast and across Canada, appearing on stages with artists such as Xavier Rudd, Portable Payback (Jurassic 5), You Say Party! and Bend Sinister. The band has appeared at festivals such as TD Atlantic Jazz festival, Halifax Pop Explosion, Sled Island, CMW, Telus World Ski and Snowboard Festival and NXNE. Publications like Exclaim!, Now Magazine, The Chronicle Herald and the Vancouver Sun have been praising Language-Arts for their niche sound while they were spinning on stations like CBC Radio 3 and topping the charts at #26 on Earshot's monthly poll of Canada's campus and community radio stations. The songs themselves range from beckoning choruses with bright hooks to meandering, lyrical sagas. It's no secret that many of these songs began as dreams- insights poke out with subtle nuances, sparkling and inquisitive.
