The Weather Station
Emerging out of Toronto’s vibrant folk scene in 2008, Tamara Lindeman AKA The Weather Station has traversed many a musical landscape and genre over the course of her enduring career. From the tender earnestness and distinctive finger-picking of her 2011 album All Of It Was Mine to the fuller, heavier sound of her third self-titled album in 2017, Lineman became known for intelligent songwriting imbued with depth and delicacy. On her Fat Possum debut Ignorance (2021),a rallying cry for climate consciousness, and its follow up How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars (2022), she went deeper still, zooming out to look at humanity as a whole, and how we respond to looming (or present) disaster.
Its a thread she picks up again on her seventh album Humanhood, released through Fat Possum in 2025. The most visceral and yet cinematic The Weather Station record yet, Humanhood transcribes a journey from dissociation back towards connection; a journey echoed in form, in sound, and lyric – and in the making of the record itself.
“Lindeman’s nimble voice moves from airy falsetto to an earthy alto with the grace and daring of a diving bird.” – New York Times
“Amid Ignorance’s bustling arrangements, [Lindeman’s] lyrics have the impact of fireworks, sparks that zip upward and explode with scintillating brilliance.” – Pitchfork
“Tamara Lindeman’s incredible new album is a visionary environmental plea.” – Rolling Stone
“Lindeman’s graceful vocals drift just above her well-crafted songs as she sings softly and achingly about making a life in a place that’s gradually decaying.” – New Yorker
