The Weather Station and Jennifer Castle, two of the greatest working songwriters in Canada—or anywhere on this blighted, beautiful planet—have recorded a miraculous, magical pair of songs together, representing their first-ever studio collaboration and the third edition of the Polaris Collaboration Sessions.

The artists and longtime friends came together for a single day at Sugar Shack studio in London, Ontario this past August to record two songs — The Weather Station’s “I Tried to Wear the World (feat. Jennifer Castle)” and Jennifer Castle’s “Midas Touch (feat. The Weather Station)," two sides of the same tarnished gold coin of sorrowfully sweet sentiments.

Videos shot by Colin Medley featuring in-the-studio performance footage as well as an interview featuring Castle and The Weather Station’s Tamara Lindeman will premiere worldwide on October 18.

“I’ve looked up to Jennifer for a long time, and she’s been a songwriting and singing hero of mine for probably forever,” said The Weather Station’s Lindeman. “I thought it would be cool to see inside of her process and learn something. It’s actually been really cool as we’re more similar than I thought. I see her doing things, and it all makes sense to me, and I understand her music better.”

“I came to the project via Tam, and it seemed like a really rare opportunity to go into the studio and have that resource provided for us,” said Castle. “So I think we both kind of jumped on it on that level. I just feel grateful for a day in the studio today and an opportunity to do something we wouldn’t be able to ‘afford’ to try.”

Jennifer Castle and The Weather Station are both two-time Polaris nominees. Castle’s Pink City made the Polaris Short List in 2015 while her Angels Of Death made the Long List this year. The Weather Station’s Loyalty album made the Long List in 2015 and the self-titled album made the Long List this year as well.

Outside Canada, this release inhabits the digital realm exclusively, but Polaris will release a very limited promotional 7" for Record Store Day in Canada. Daniel Romano made the cover art.
