((Music)) by the august arrival

Yukon, North of Ordinary

“I love the Yukon so much,” says Whitehorse singer-songwriter Sara MacDonald, a.k.a. the august arrival. “I don’t think it necessarily informs the songs, but it’s definitely, like, the place where songs live.”

At the insistence of our producer Mark Koepke, Sara discusses the personal and musical journey that ultimately led to Hillsides, her latest album produced by fellow Yukoner Jordy Walker. She then introduces the single “Whisper” for your listening pleasure.

Want to hear more? Yes, you do. You’ll find links on the august arrival’s website.
