Time sure does fly!!<\/em><br><br><em>We had a distinct idea for the visual accompaniment to this track and we knew there was one person who could bring it to light; our beloved and frequent collaborator\u00a0Lesley Marshall. However, when we were informed that the time to make a video was upon us, it seemed close to impossible that we would be able to make the trip to meet with her. While she is close to our hearts, we were separated by 4580km (2845 miles for our USA\/UK friends). However, Lesley and the team at MAVN\u00a0thankfully remained undaunted by such concerns.

A music video in a music video. It&#8217;s what would have happened if Thelma and Louise escaped with all the money and drove happily ever after off into the sunset and had wonderful prosperous lives. Fueled\u00a0by music video epics, pulp films, and ripe with sarcasm,\u00a0Time Is A\u00a0Car,\u00a0has the parody\u00a0quality of Beastie Boys&#8217;\u00a0Sabotage\u00a0and the vibrancy of Megan Thee Stalion&#8217;s\u00a0Thot Sh*t.&#8221;<\/em> explains Director Lesley Marshall<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During a brief period in 2020 when it was safe to travel, the band headed to\u00a0Gabriola Island\u00a0on BC\u2019s West Coast where they quarantined themselves for 14 days in a cabin writing and rehearsing, and then headed into the studio for 7 days at\u00a0The Noise Floor Recording Studio. <em>Time Is A Car<\/em> is the first song from this session. More to come later in 2022.<br><br>Lucy and Jos\u00e9e formed Partner in the spring of 2014. They were looking to experiment with genre, discuss being gay, and share some jokes and ideas. Their objective has remained the same over the past seven years, although in that time their sound has shifted considerably.<br><br>Partner\u2019s debut album\u00a0\u2018In Search of Lost Time\u2019\u00a0(2017) made an impact with its big guitars and polished sound. The record, mixed by\u00a0Chris Shaw\u00a0(Ween, Bob Dylan, Cheap Trick), landed a spot on\u00a0NPR\u2019s All Songs Considered, along with\u00a0Stereogum, Noisey, Exclaim, CBC Music,\u00a0Indie 88\u00a0and many more best of 2017 lists. The album was shortlisted for the\u00a0Polaris Prize, and Partner were the recipients of the\u00a0SOCAN songwriting prize\u00a0for their song <em>Play the Field<\/em>.<br><br>Partner\u2019s follow-up EP\u00a0\u2018Saturday the 14th\u2019\u00a0found the duo embarking on bolder and more playful compositional excursions. Throughout this highly experimental period, ideas for the next album began to coalesce. In the summer of 2019 Lucy and Jos\u00e9e joined all-star drummer\u00a0Simone TB\u00a0(US Girls, Highest Order, Darlene Shrugg) in the studio to create their second full-length album, titled\u00a0\u2018Never Give Up\u2019. With\u00a0\u2018Never Give Up,\u2019 Partner returned to their classic rock roots and awakened their truest gifts to deliver their most exciting, riff-laden effort yet.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Partner are back with a new single and video\u00a0Time Is A Car.
