Hiding in Vancouver, a love song as romantic and poetic as Leonard Cohen’s Suzanne, is the first of a string of powerful LGBTQ2S-centric singles set to be released this year. It's a memory song, of two lovers in Vancouver- "..the poems that we wrote, contemplations over a smoke.."
Distinct, as if in a dream, they trace the city streets looking for belonging- "..From East Vans healing streets, to the bookstores underneath.." Alive in sensuality and wildly erotic:- "..Lie in the forest, steam starts forming like ribbons, apparitions of flames, envelop.."
lyrics
Hide in Vancouver,
State side sunny beach protest,
Seagulls in the forrest,
Camas reach to sea foam and lie,
I see tears, dripping on street signs again,
Dancing in the wind,
Tweaking to singers in the night,
From East Vans healing streets, to the bookstores underneath the dive bars I drink at late at night,
The poems that we wrote, contemplations over a smoke, paint-chipped cracked windows all aligned,
What a city,
What a city tonight,
Lie in the forest, steam starts forming like ribbons, apparitions of flames, envelop,
all the mossy neon signs,
What a city, what a city of love

Sail Cassady came alive while reading ‘on the road’ by Jack Kerouac in 2012. The adventure, art and imagery held within the
parameters of a single book birthed the idea that the same concept could be experienced within a song or a band.
