• Princess Century

  

  Princess Century is actually Maya Postepski – a Toronto-based artist who is also in Austra and Trust. So if you guessed that 0n her own she also makes dark, broody, sexy, goth music…you guessed correct. Apparently she was inspired to write the songs...

  Some more incoming shiatz from Toronto peeps – this time it’s electronically-enhanced-popnicks First Rate People. They holed up in a cabin for a while and made a bunch of music. I’m sure it’s gonna make you cream your…
