Unessential Oils marks the debut release from the new project of Warren Spicer, acclaimed singer from Montreal’s Plants and Animals. Drawing inspiration from jazz, folk, Tropicália, and iconoclasts like Jorge Ben, Daniel Lanois, and Miles Davis, the album offers a fresh, exploratory sound that fuses alternative rock with global and improvisational influences. Conceived entirely while bathing, Spicer’s creative process infuses the record with an open, fluid atmosphere that is both inviting and inventive.
This album stands out for its focus on musicianship and adventurous performances, with minimal songwriting giving way to expressive embellishment and spirited improvisation. Released by Secret City Records in 2024, Unessential Oils invites listeners into a dynamic sonic world where the execution and interplay between players take center stage. Fans of genre-blending and thoughtfully-crafted alternative music will find much to appreciate in this bold and unpredictable release.
