Versa - A Voyage / A Destination # 2 (2024)

The fourth album from this band from Canada.

The band is a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, violin, keyboards, trumpet and vocals.

The band comes from Victoria on the large Vancouver Island just outside Vancouver on the west side of Canada. 

I had the joy of reviewing their third album, the 2022 album The Voyage/A Destination in this blog. This, the 2024 album is the follow up, the continuation of the 2022 album. 

Their 2022 album was a good album so I jumped on the chance to review the follow up album.

The music is still indie rock, merged with ambient post rock, progressive rock, art rock, jazz and folk rock. Add a lot of cinematic rock too and you get my drift.

There is eleven short tracks and the eighteen minutes long Artemis opus on this album. This one hour long album sounds like one big piece of music and should indeed be regarded as such. There is no hit singles here, in other words.

The music is at times very softly spoken. The vocals is a mix of male and female vocals. They are both good vocals. The music is also elegant. 

The quality of the music is good throughout and this is an album that prog fans should check out.
