About New Stems:

All four members of New Stems have been comrades, amigos, and best buds since the early days of high school. Tal and Jordan started performing together as an acoustic duo under the name “The Stems”, but quickly expanded their resources to include Daniel in 2009. Several years went by with a rotating cast of bass players. In 2011, Adam decided to start playing the bass, and, as he was already a good friend, adding him was a natural fit.

Although we cater to a wide range of audiences our sound is often described with adjectives such as: “folk”, “organic”, “jammy”, “wacky”, and most notably, “the cat’s pyjamas”. We draw inspiration from groups like The Beatles, Phish, The Flaming Lips, Pavement and The Grateful Dead. Our oeuvre ranges from psychedelic rock to country, with a recurring focus on unique collaborative improvisation - we explore the myriad possibilities both within and outside of our songs.

We have recently been recording at Metalworks Studios in Mississauga, under the supervision of producer extraordinaire Adam Feldman. It’s been a ton of fun, and we’re really excited to get the new recordings released.
