TAURO, the collaboration between jazz pianist and singer-songwriter Cynthia Tauro and Brendan Canning (Broken Social Scene), share their debut single “Great Minds”. The duo found its genesis in the summer of 2022 during the uncertainty of the pandemic. Brendan coming from the indie rock world, and Cynthia from the Toronto jazz world, having just released her debut album.
The laid-back alternative R&B track speaks to a long lasting love between two people. Of the track, TAURO reflects, “They know they shouldn’t be together, but somehow the feeling of them still lingers”. Combining R&B drums with Cynthia’s soothing harmonies, layered with Brendan’s vocals, “Great Minds” harkens back to the days of trip-hop and finds itself in the spirit of such legendary groups as Air and Zero7.
“Great Minds” arrives with a stunning video from animator Jared Sales, and is distributed by Arts & Crafts.
