Destroyer

There is more than one performer with the name Destroyer. 1) Dan Bejar started Destroyer as a solo home-recording experiment in the early to mid 90s. Working alone, and at his own pace, Bejar dabbled in four tracking and worked to develop his style and vision. He was meticulous in reworking songs again and again until he found confidence in his music and his voice. By 1996 he had culled enough material to release his debut full length, We’ll Build Them A Golden Bridge. Stripped down lo-fi electric folk, Golden Bridge introduced Dan as a major new talent in Vancouver.

It was January, in the year of grace 2005. Two broken relationships had led two very good friends (Daniel & Joakim) down the path to the strikingly untidy rehearsalstudio. A decision was made.
