Chamber pop trio, Gentle Party, have been described as “lush and somewhat mischievous, yet shimmering with melancholy” (Dave O Rama, BC Musician Magazine). The group has a new single to share with the world, entitled “God Complex,” which meditates on the question, ‘Can you separate the art from the artist?’

Written on a tiny Reface CS synthesizer at the LEÑA artist residency on British Columbia’s Galiano Island, “God Complex” is an inquisitive and melodic embodiment of a misogynistic individual who is celebrated in Gentle Party’s artistic community.

“Please forgive me for my god complex, please forgive me while you pray at my feet.” The band explains that “so many times people’s ‘apologies’ for their bad behavior are simply spineless virtue signaling, without integrity, values, or behavior change to back it up.”
