Rumour Mill

Rumour Mill is the folk-pop collaboration of lifelong friends and fellow pre-school comrades Aline Deanna and Anna Katarina, who began their musical journey in the mountains of small town Nelson, BC. Both raised in low-income homes by resilient single mothers, their constant companion through the highs and lows was music. The duo now resides in the lower mainland when they are not on tour, which is most of the year. Their true collaboration becomes clear when listening to their solo records, with Aline's musical stylings centred in Country and Folk while Anna leans into Indie/Pop; the combination of these genres is seamless yet notable in their co-written music. Their first full-length album, What She Said, released in October 2023, is inspired by the likes of Stevie Nicks, Brandi Carlile and First Aid Kit. It is a collection of beautiful, groovy and memorable songs that feature a lush and groovy topography of violin, keys, guitar and mandolin, led by a narrative of iconic harmonies, produced by Murray Pulver (Crash Test Dummies, The Bros. Landreth) and supported by FACTOR's Juried Sound Recording grant and Creative BC. The duo is known for their catchy melodies, soulful harmonies and skillful songwriting that creates a unique indie-folk sound. With their authentic friendship translating into musical chemistry and their ability to blend their distinct styles into something greater than the sum of its parts, Rumour Mill represents a new generation of Canadian folk-pop artists.
