Episode 3 - Zoon picks Sea Change by Beck

Zoon is the musical moniker of Hamilton’s Daniel Monkman. Born in Selkirk, Manitoba, and raised in Brokenhead Ojibway Nation, Monkman saw the horrors of Canadian racism everyday. This sadly led to him abusing alcohol and drugs. However, Monkman found solace in his self-proclaimed “moccasin-gaze” a combination of 90s shoegaze with traditional First Nations music. His debut album Bleached Wavves, which was one of our favorite records of 2020, was recorded in his bedroom and his jam space, using only a Fender Deville guitar and DigiTech delay pedal. Zoon has chosen Becks 2002 album, Sea Change.  “the leaf blower-wielding performance artist reborn as heartbroken bohemian superstar.” - Stereogum “Sea Change showed me what Beck was capable of”. - SPIN magazine “being torn apart by idle hands” - Beck - Paper Tiger
