London, Ontario-based photographer Allan Lewis has carved out a space in music under his moniker of Van der Saar, delivering a raw and authentic indie rock artistry rooted in a DIY spirit.
His latest single "Truck Flattener,” showcases his vast musicality, framed equally by melodies and distortion. Layering gritty guitars, the track weaves striking, noisy moments with quieter, introspective moments to capture a nostalgic and hazy vibe that feels melancholic and yet hopeful.
Pulling us into a world of controlled chaos that is both unfiltered and precise, the track gives us a glimpse of his EP Knights as he hones a rich sonic terrain which pays ode to wide-ranging indie-alt influences.
Weaving melodic tales of everyday life with his natural ability to bring powerful imagery to life, Lewis’ music is worth tuning into.
