Career

Gavanski had considered following her father Ogden into the film industry.[1] After developing her music for a year she released her first record, Spring Demos, in 2017 via Fox Food Records.[1]

In 2019 Gavanski released two singles, "One by One" and "Catch"; both were produced by Mike Lindsay of Tunng.[4][5]

Gavanski recorded two sessions for BBC Radio 6 Music's Marc Riley show in 2019.[6][7] In early 2020, Gavanski supported Damien Jurado on his European tour.[8]

On 27 March 2020, Gavanski released her debut full-length album, Yesterday Is Gone.[9] Exclaim! music magazine, which had declared Gavanski as one of "eight emerging Canadian artists you should hear,"[10] awarded the album 9/10.[11] Music website Monkeybiz described the album as "a beautiful work of art".[12] BBC Radio 6 Music made Yesterday Is Gone its album of the week.[13]

The tour to promote Yesterday Is Gone was postponed, initially until later in 2020 and subsequently until 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[14]

On 5 June 2020 Gavanski released a cover version of King Crimson's "I Talk to the Wind" with proceeds donated to charity.[15] On 14 August 2020 she released Wind Songs, an EP composed of four cover versions and a traditional Macedonian folk song.[16][9]
