Canadian rock duo Crown Lands has released their self-titled debut album—produced by six-time Grammy winner Dave Cobb—marks the arrival of a major new force.
The group’s name is indicative of their substantial ambitions; “Crown Land” is a territorial area belonging to the monarch—or, as singer Cody Bowles (whose own heritage is half Indigenous) puts it, “Crown Land is stolen land and we are reclaiming it.”

Says Bowles: “I identify as Two-Spirit and dream of a better world for the brilliant Indigenous womxn, girls, and 2SLGBTQ+ people who face adversity every day for their very existence.”
