Montreal’s Skiifall announces the release of his new EP Lovers Til I’m Gone, which is set for release on January 15th, 2025. As previewed by recent single “Problems” and today’s new single “Mystery Man,” Lovers Til I’m Gone finds the artist striking new sonic territory from the road rap-influenced sound on which he first rose to prominence, embracing the sounds of lover’s rock for a stark new chapter in the Skiifall story.
Working with Kenny Beats, who produced the entirety of the EP alongside contributions from longtime Skiifall producer YAMA//SOTO, gave Skii both the inspiration and courage to make music that his mother would like. While lover’s rock and reggae more broadly surrounded him during his childhood in both Montreal and St. Vincent, he never considered it as being more than background music until he experienced its ability to serve as a balm from the chaos of life in adulthood.
The release of “Mystery Man” (alongside its Rubberband-directed performance video) today further adds dimension to the world that he and Kenny have built across the body of work that was first showcased in “Problems.” Elsewhere on the EP, Jorja Smith lends a feature to “Her World” that, in addition to her Popcaan-featuring song “Come Over,” showcases how effortlessly her voice meshes with the sonic palette of the Caribbean.
Speaking about Lovers Til I’m Gone, Skiifall shares:
“When I first sat with Kenny Beats he spoke openly about how wanting to honor his father had inspired him to release solo music that ultimately became his debut album Louie. That conversation gave me the inspiration and confidence to try making music that my own mother would like listening to, since my earliest music wasn’t something she could relate to. A combination of the reggae that she played in my house when I was a child and Kenny pushing me to take artistic risks that ultimately resulted in Lovers Til I’m Gone, a project that I’m extremely proud of and excited to share with the world.”
