Vancouver-based progressive rock band Brass Camel announce that they will release their third album Brass Camel<\/em> on April 15th<\/sup>, 2026. The new single from the upcoming album, “What Are You Going to Do”, releases today, March 4th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listen to \u201cWhat Are You Going to Do\u201d:<\/strong> http:\/\/linktr.ee\/listentobrasscamel<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The album was recorded primarily at Chalet Studios in Uxbridge and co-produced by Kevin Comeau (Crown Lands). The mix of this new album gets a decidedly more old-school treatment this time as the band had the honour of getting Terry Brown of Rush production fame on board. Says Terry, \u201cSome classic influences here on the new Brass Camel album, so couple that with cool tunes, great arrangements, excellent lyric writing and superb execution by a group of talented musicians – you get great results! Thanks for having me mix this epic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This upcoming self-titled record represents both a consolidation of the band\u2019s previous strengths, and an evolution in other ways. Brass Camel<\/em> is the first album of material entirely written during the tenure of the current lineup. Even the previous album Camel<\/em>, recorded with the full five-piece, still contained much material conceived during more primordial stages of the Brass Camel project. The band sees this as a culmination of a loose three-album cycle that firmly establishes what they\u2019re about, as evidenced by the cheeky progression of titles Brass<\/em>, Camel<\/em>, and finally Brass Camel<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Says guitarist Daniel Sveinson, \u201cBrass Camel <\/em>is, appropriately, the first Brass Camel record that I feel sounds like a Brass Camel record.<\/em> We\u2019ve spent god knows how many hours in a bus together, in studio together and onstage together and I\u2019d like to believe that is reflected in this collection of songs and recordings. We were focused, driven and motivated throughout the process and can\u2019t wait to play these songs live all over the country and, later this year, in Europe (and hopefully the UK).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One goal the band had for this new album was for the lyrical content to be more central to the creative process. Says keyboardist Aubrey Ellefson, \u201cEach track here explores a specific concept or story; from the legend of the Jersey Devil, to a dramatic narration of the Titan submersible disaster, to tackling the can of worms that is AI vs. the creative process, and many more.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Says Daniel, \u201cThis album is more lyrically dense – there\u2019s a higher word count here than our first two LPs put together – and more musically ambitious, weirder and yet somehow more accessible than our previous efforts. There are a lot of subtleties and easter eggs hidden in the arrangements which I hope will make each listen more entertaining than the last! When it\u2019s funk, it\u2019s funkier. When it\u2019s proggy, it\u2019s proggier. When it\u2019s loud, it\u2019s louder. When it\u2019s quiet, it\u2019s quieter. There\u2019s a lot more of a lot more but it\u2019s all Brass Camel. <\/em>Hope you enjoy it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Brass Camel:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vancouver’s Brass Camel is a rock band that defies labels, fusing deep-pocket funk, face-melting prog, and massive-harmony art rock. Since releasing their debut album Brass in 2022, they\u2019ve played over 180 shows, including four national Canadian tours, major festivals (Between the Peaks, Starbelly Jam, Wapiti), and stages like Vancouver\u2019s Commodore Ballroom, Vogue Theatre, and a Toronto headliner at the historic Longboat Hall. Their musicianship and work ethic have earned endorsements from Sabian, Rotosound UK, Pro Mark Drumsticks and Evans Drumheads. In 2024, their cover of Sabrina Carpenter\u2019s Please Please Please<\/em> on Musora\u2019s Covers Challenge took off on YouTube, drawing 750,000 views and counting. Their sophomore album Camel<\/em> (spring 2025) brought international press, reaction videos, and steady LP sales. While touring in support of this album, the band recorded their third LP at Uxbridge’s pastoral Chalet Studio with Kevin Comeau of Crown Lands co-producing. Mixed by the legendary Terry Brown (Rush, Hendrix, The Who, Blue Rodeo), the upcoming (April 2026) release marks a bold leap in songwriting, distilling Brass Camel\u2019s road-forged sound into something entirely their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
