“GeminiCrab” is the name of the Montreal-based HighSoul music duo consisting of Felix award winner keyboardist/producer Caulder Nash (Jonathan Roy) and Grammy nominee
vocalist/producer Malika Tirolien (Bokanté).
GeminiCrab combines a plethora of music styles including R&B, Soul and jazz-Hip Hop highlighted by honest lyrics in English, as well as French from a Gen Y Lens, the title of their brand new album. They playfully reflect on several eras of music through 7 catchy songs about love, adulting and the multi-faceted realities of millennials. Two singles will accompany the release, the first single, A Love That Will Last, is an R&B ballad that takes us back to the 90’s lush chords and arrangements, painting a story about owning responsibility in one’s part in a failed relationship and making space for the next partner.
The duo met years ago through Montreal’s Kalmunity Vibe Collective. They’ve also played together in Malika Tirolien’s solo project and decided to start a band together after a Phi Center residency that had them create songs with the binaural audio technology. Caulder came up with GeminiCrab (the name) as the acknowledgement of each member’s astrological sign. For the recording of the album, they brought in good friends and renowned musicians such as Michael League and Ronny Desinor to play on some of the tracks.
