More On This Album

The Hermit’s story is one of musical evolution and creative growth. Three albums and multiple tours stretching across almost a decade for founder Hamish Thomson have seen The Hermit’s sound change and evolve, whilst bonds with trusted band-mates Jon Frederiksen (bass), Robert Mitchell (keyboards), and Duane Murrin (guitars) have been strengthened and new vocalist Red welcomed into the fold.

Founded in the year 2000 by Vancouver drummer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Thomson, The Hermit began life as a solo electronic project “Flying out of Solitude”. A successful independent release led to multiple West Coast Music Award nominations and a label deal with Nettwerk Records.

On the 2005 follow-up “Wonderment”, Thomson once again acted as Producer, but this time captured the essence of a diverse pool of musicians and vocalists, garnering The Hermit an Indie Award for “Favourite Electronica Artist” at Canadian Music Week 2006 and a #1 chart placing on Bravo TV’s Video Countdown with “Sir Real”

Building on the collaborative group dynamic that had grown out of touring “Wonderment”, the now five piece group began work on their third album in 2008 “Turn Up (The Stereo)” and 11 shimmering songs about twisted relationships, love, loss, dreams and desire was release in 2009.
