Social Animals

This week I am hanging out with Jake Touzel

Jake is the lead singer of the Vancouver-based hard rock mastadons called Sleepcircle.Jake and I coordinated time zones and chatted about siblings vs single children, the quiet chaos in the company of cats and rolling 200 joints and Jake shares a favourite book.

'The Knife Awaits' slated for February 17th 2023. With their energetic performances and distinctive sound, Sleepcircle has built a loyal fanbase that continues to grow with each new release. Their shows are known to be high energy and unforgettable, with fans eagerly anticipating their upcoming dates for 2023
