Leif Vollebekk preps 'Twin Solitude' (watch "Elegy" video), touring

Montreal singer-songwriter Leif Vollebekk will release his new album, Twin Solitude, on February 24 via Secret City. Leif produced the LP himself and it features contributions from Olivier Fairfield from Timber Timbre, Barr Brothers harpist Sarah Page and guitarist Shahzad Ismaily. He’s expanded his sound a bit this time, as can be heard on the lovely, soulful and spare lead single, “Elegy.” The video for “Elegy” is equally striking, shot in Florida with director Kaveh Nabatian, whose camera followed Leif on a secluded beach till the sun went down. That video premiere in this post and you can watch it above.

Leif will play a record release show at NYC’s Mercury Lounge on February 28 and tickets for that show go on sale Friday, December 9 at noon. After that, he’ll play a release show in Montreal then head across the Atlantic for a lengthy European tour. All dates are listed, along with album art and tracklist, below.
