Grizzly Coast

Story

From the imaginative, yet highly-analytical mind of Alannah Kavanagh comes Grizzly Coast, the Toronto-based musical project blending dreamy indie rock instrumentation with introspective pop lyricism.

Starting in 2017, Grizzly Coast cut her teeth playing the Toronto solo acoustic circuit before expanding into a four-piece indie band in 2019. Nine months after the band’s inaugural live show, they were honored as part of Exclaim! Magazine’s Class of 2020, tearing up the stage in celebration of Canadian music.

Since kicking off the project, Grizzly Coast has been sharpening her songwriting, growing her loyal following, and tightening her live show in Toronto’s vibrant live music scene, supporting acts like Fast Romantics and Begonia. Her first single, Zuzu’s Petals, was featured as one of CBC’s top contenders for the 2019 Searchlight Competition. Her second, Half-Light Boy, had its mid-century-inspired music video go viral on Reddit’s R/ListentoThis.

2020 saw the culmination of years of songwriting with the release of her debut EP, Party of One. The EP successfully blended dreamy guitar rock sensibilities with Grizzly Coast’s trademark thoughtful lyricism, and was supported by Sirius XM while charting on college radio.

Her debut LP Staying Power is out October 9, 2024.
