Expanda Fuzz

Expanda Fuzz is a duo from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, known for their unique blend of catchy, droney, post-punk songs. The band was conceived with the idea of covering a Pink Floyd song using a female voice, layered fuzz distortion, and beats from a sampler, played at a slow tempo. This experiment evolved into their distinctive sound, which is often described as akin to Mazzy Star run through a vintage fuzz pedal or Kim Deal fronting the Velvet Underground. Expanda Fuzz has released several notable works, including their first full-length album "Cotton Candy Jet Engine" in 2018, which features tracks like "Ghosts and Flowers" and "The Last of the Who Heads." They have also released an EP titled "Bleuets" and have been active in the Canadian music scene, performing at festivals such as Ottawa Explosion and Sled Island.

Expanda Fuzz's music often incorporates elements of garage rock and psych-garage sounds, with a strong emphasis on fuzzy guitars and distorted bass. Their DIY approach includes writing, recording, and creating their own artwork, reflecting a commitment to independent music production. The duo's style is praised for its blend of dark, edgy elements with melodic vocals, creating a captivating and immersive listening experience.
