Lindy Vopnfjord released his newest album, State of the Heart, in the first weeks of the pandemic and finally now gets to support the album on tour.
State of the Heart reflects not only Lindy's personal evolution toward a new love and revolution as a dedicated songwriter, but also, the new life producer Danny Michel breathes into Lindy’s style by imbuing his signature folk sound with a modern feel. The opening moments on the single “State of the Heart” carry the audience in this new direction, as he sings: “This was meant to be a protest song, but the politics were wrong / Not a time to be sublime / let’s leave the politics behind.”
State of the Heart displays the synergy between the sound and vision of a meticulous perfectionist working out of a rural Southern Ontario studio and the soul of a self-described “joyologist and freedom nerd” who recently moved to Hamilton, Ontario. The resulting energy enlivens the beautifully crafted tunes.
Compelled to write the world a song, Lindy’s “Look Me In the Eye” pays homage to environmental activist Greta Thunberg, while "No Place Left to Land" soundtracks the 2019 documentary Margaret Atwood: A Word after a Word after a Word is Power, which was featured at Toronto’s prestigious Hot Docs showcase. Passionate about human rights and community action, Lindy also organized “HAMILTON LOVES YOU: Show of Support for Human Rights Activist Kidus Mehalu and Family” in February of this year.
Lindy’s music has been leaving a lasting impression on audiences since he released his debut studio album in 1995. Listeners have fallen in love with mile-wide smile and magnificent talent at house parties, bars, embassies, theatre halls (supporting the Canadian duo Whitehorse), and large festivals, including Montreal’s Osheaga (with Ian LeFeuvre and Todor Kobakov as the electronic pop group, Major Maker), Reykjavik Folk Festival, Winnipeg Folk Festival and Hillside Festival. On his 2019 album You Will Know When It’s Right, he collaborated with the legendary Icelandic band Nydonsk, whose music inspired him during his upbringing in a musical Icelandic family.
