ALDEN & MICHAEL CERA PENNER – CANADA IN SPACE

The Unicorns’ Alden Penner teams up with actor Michael Cera for Penner’s Canada in Space EP, out June 29 via City Slang. According to Penner, the new album takes its inspiration from the high volume of Canadian participants in the Mars colony, and hears Penner exploring sounds and themes that are out of this world. In a statement from a press release, he said: “There are more Canadians than any other nationality represented in the planned Mars colony. The Canada in Space EP is an imagining of the dreams, reveries, phantasms, hallucinations, psycho-spiritual projections, naïve mythologies, actions, visions and experiences of an abandoned crew before, during and after its permanent journey to Mars; the compression of time; dispersion, fragmentation of states and generations in space; ultimate detachment & wormholes.”
