Bodywash formed in 2014 as a vehicle for the sonic bond between Chris Steward and Rosie Long Decter. The Montreal duo conjure a dreamscape with airy vocals, intricate guitars and pulsating synths over a heavy rhythmic foundation. In 2019, they released their debut LP, Comforter, which received praise from Bandcamp Daily, NPR Music, Clash Mag and elsewhere.

Though touring for Comforter was cut short by COVID-19, the band showcased at international festivals including SXSW, New Colossus in New York, and M for Montreal. This spring, they release their anticipated follow-up, I Held the Shape While I Could via Light Organ Records, which finds the band experimenting with glitching drones and cascading vocals while exploring themes of dislocation and decay.
