Info zu moonbeams & frequencies

The Della Kit has created a dreamy, Jazz-inspired, neo soul record with producers Astrological and Mr. Carmack. Collaborating with an array of artists and musicians, this album captures her evocative stories of healing and self-love. moonbeams & frequencies is a cultivation of the soul-driven energies and boundless musical influences that are woven into the fabric of The Della Kit’s journey to this day.

Over her fifteen years as a singer, songwriter, and DJ, Dee Lansdberg has become synonymous with creativity and innovation that inspires and educates in equal measure. Born into a lineage of Italian and Jewish musicians from Boston and New York, and raised by hippies amongst the mountains of B.C., she has curated festivals, facilitated music education programs, and forged meaningful connections in clubs and concert halls as far afield as Brazil and Berlin. With thematic inspiration drawn from the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Joni Mitchell, and India.Arie, Dee’s music is playful, personal, and grounded in self-love, social justice, and deep care for its listeners.

Midway through the COVID-19 pandemic, Dee took this spirit of deep care to heart, and made the decision to refocus and refresh her brand while still channeling her musical and educational efforts. Career Development funding via the Amplify BC program paved the way for her subsequent rebirth as the della kit.

As a successful 2021/22 Career Development grant recipient, Dee was able to partner with noted Canadian label and management company ArtHaus in support of the 2022 release of her new neo-soul/R&B album: moonbeams & frequencies. As Dee’s first public offering under the della kit brand, the album itself will drop this summer, with three single releases beforehand. Career Development support also financed the production of the music video for the R&B/soul and introspective track “baby blue”, one of the album’s flagship singles. This funding also significantly increased the video’s production values, with production occurring regionally, throughout Nakusp, Slocan, and Sandon, as well as within the East Vancouver, Chinatown, and Strathcona neighborhoods of Vancouver proper.

What’s behind this new name? As Dee explains, “The name ‘the della kit’ [is] borne out of the connection to the deeper parts of myself: my offerings, and my ancestral lineage. Della comes from D’allesandro. This is my mother’s maiden name from my Italian side. I added the word Kit because [of] this idea that I keep my instruments – my voice, and my body – with me wherever I go. To be delicate is to be precise, present, and patient. To be vulnerable is to be strong. To share my authentic voice while uplifting and empowering others to share their own is big, deep, and careful work.”

To offer added context, Dee continues, “When I set out on the journey of the della kit, I wanted to make timeless music: music that folks want to sit down and listen to; music that can be fully absorbed and felt through the minds, bodies, and spirits of these same listeners. When I set out on this journey, the intention was to, first, heal myself, and then let the music be the medicine for my listeners.”
