A mix of energetic power pop and intimate, introspective vocals, Winnipeg's Glassreel crafts indie rock defined by timeless melodies and unmistakable hooks. The trading vocals of Kelly Beaton and Trevor Graumann are matched by the dynamic rhythm section of Ken Phillips and Sebastian Cox. With layered guitar arrangements and intricate vocal harmonies, the band elevates pop music into something unique and indelible.
Glassreel’s full length debut Lustre (September 30, 2022) gained coverage from Bandcamp, SiriusXM, and CBC, as well as airplay on college radio throughout North America (the song "Free Time" remained on CBC's national playlist two years after being released as a single). Glassreel has previously shared the stage with artists such as Wintersleep, Said the Whale, Fast Romantics and Dave Monks (Tokyo Police Club), toured Canada and the US, and showcased at festivals such as NXNE 2024.
