In 2011, songwriting duo Michael Haun and Danji Buck-Moore began their nearly decade long partnership creating music with a distinct harmonic identity and inventive production.

Slight's first incarnation was the experimental project Vostok 1 – named for the first manned spaceflight.

Vostok 1 provided the soundtrack for what would eventually become La Plante – Montreal's most resilient DIY venue and Slight's spiritual home in the city.

Slight's distinctive blend of harmonic indie-rock and production wizardry came into its own with the addition of drummer Ryan White in 2014.

Since then, Slight's distinctive sound has matured – taking lessons from the mind-expanding sounds of the past while rejecting imitation for forward-looking experimentalism.

A muscular stage trio, Slight's studio experiments remain rooted in their live instrumentation: Voices, shimmering guitars, motorik percussion, vintage synths and the inimitable bass roar of a 1967 Italian-made combo organ through a blistering always-on fuzz pedal.

Obsessive studio heads, Slight now records out of Autoland – a new Montreal studio for the sonically curious whose client list included Ought, No Joy, Charlotte Cornfield and Bodywash.
