Canadian alt-pop outfit Hotel Mira have released a new Ep I am Not Much Help on Light Organ Records.
The EP features four tracks ‘Oh, Sunshine’, ‘Verona’, “Waste Away’ and ‘The View From the Barstool’.
Front man Charlie Kerr says: “These are truly simple songs about the confusion and frustration in matters of the heart. Maybe there is a more head-y line here or there but I think mostly you are getting a collection of songs that feel like a book of essays or short stories. Based more in characters and situations than concepts or hypotheses.
Because human beings like a good comparison or categorization than: If I Am Not Myself is layered, meta, challenging arthouse cinema then I Am Not Much Help feels more like four good episodes of a sitcom. We all sincerely hope you enjoy them as much as we do and you play them loud.”
The band has supported many acts including Billy Talent, Fizzy Blood, The Beaches and Frank Lero (My Chemical Romance), and carried out multiple headlining tours of their own.
While building off the sharp, indie pop hooks, Hotel Mira are exploring their widest set of sounds yet, vaulting from neon-trashy garage rock to festival-sized pop hooks and glam-bop balladry.
