Calgary's Reuben and the Dark is a collection of five multi-instrumentalists and vocalists led by Reuben Bullock. The group makes chilling, emotive folk and soul driven by dark, introspective lyrics that explore the duality of misery and joy.

Boasting a rare chemistry between all members across western Canada, Reuben and the Dark has emerged organically from Canada's stellar independent scene on the strength of often anthemic compositions that translate the language of emotion into song with haunting clarity.

Their debut album is produced by the UK's Chris Hayden (Florence & the Machine) and Canada's Stephen Kozmeniuk (Madonna, Nicki Minaj, and The Game feat Kanye West) and is being mixed by Jim Abbiss (Arctic Monkeys, Adele).

LYRICS:

i get high. i get low.
but that’s the way these things go.
i saw my face in the mirror and lo i know i’ve changed
though i look much the same.
i found grace in the black water. bathe my soul
and tell my heart. i told you so.
i lay like bait in in a lions cage and wait for my time to come.
i’m begging please i need this so much more than you will ever know.
i get high. i get low.
but that’s the way these things go.
i saw my face in the mirror and lo i know i’ve changed
though it looks much the same.
i found grace in the black water. bathe my soul
and tell my heart. i told you so.
