A celebrated artist for nearly two decades and 10 years sober, Leeroy Stagger gained national attention with Hot Hot Heat and Carolyn Mark and has built a world class recording studio. A lush reflection of his life’s evolution, Strange Path is the title of his newest album and book, due out September 13 via True North Records.
Directed by Brock Davis Mitchell, the video for glam-rock blissed out lead single “Strange Attractor” draws inspiration from films like The Favourite and Marie Antoinette and weaves an experimental narrative with shocking bursts of colour. “Nothing is permanent when you really stop and think,” says Leeroy. “The home we live in, the car we drive, the children we raise, the art we make and the skin that we’re in. It’s precious, impermanent and beautiful. “Strange Attractor” is about the unseen nature of impermanence and the sacredness of the life we live.”
