Little Payne [Vinyl]

This is the 5th Limblifter record.

It was conceived bit by bit, when inspiration would sneak into a rehearsals for shows or in between recording sessions at my studio in East Vancouver. These little song starts or jams sprout up; incomplete, but with the potential to be full songs.

As these recordings amassed on hard drives, I would occasionally listen back, hunting for a glimmer or an angle of potential; some of which were buried inside long jams. These sessions happened over a five year period as I was also recording, mixing, writing and mastering for other artists in my studio called recRoom.

In 2020, my partner and bandmate in Limblifter, Megan Bradfield and I migrated to our cottage on a Southern Gulf Island in British Columbia.

At the start of the pandemic, recording, mixing and at my Vancouver studio wasnt a wise idea, so I migrated my from East Van to the Southern Gulf Islands and opened Mayne Island Sound. My partner and bandmate, Meagan Bradfield and I have been coming to this island for years to take a break from our busy downtown Vancouver life and during COVID we found ourselves staying here, waiting for the madness to pass. Moving away from my busy Vancouver studio life and from touring gave me perspective.

Living in the middle of this spectacular forest on an island has put Megan and I back in touch with nature.

The combination of all these things gave me laser focus to write new material and finish the songs wed started. - Ryan Dahle
