A new album and musical experience is now available on Patreon!

May I present to you ‘Lovelorn and Hopesick’! A Patreon exclusive album!

This collection of songs is a piano and string driven album that echoes my love of trip-hop, chamber pop, and electronic music. It’s dark, bright, moody, sometimes sexy, and definitely a sad girl’s paradise.

Thanks to my wonderful Patreon community this little gem now exists! I wanted to extend my eternal gratitude to them along with Gaia Guarda, Dagda of Celtibeerian, Kathryn Knowles, Dalai Cellai, Troy Williams, Christopher Caouette, and Monolithic Productions for whom all of this could not have been possible!

If you’d like to get your hands on this album you can get it exclusively on the Patreon platform at the Clandestine Tier and up: https://www.patreon.com/checkout/lindsayschoolcraft?rid=6713524
This level of access gives you tons of extra exclusive music and news on my next heavy album…

THAT’S RIGHT! Now that this is out of my system, we are onto the sophomore follow up to 2019’s ‘Martyr’. If you want real time updates that you can comment on, there is also a FREE membership on Patreon too. So go find the and sign up anyways so you don’t miss a thing ;)

Big News!

I’m thrilled to announce I’ve become an Audio-Technica artist!

This is something I’ve been dreaming about since I was a teenager and I’m over the moon!

I’m always impressed by the quality and performance of their gear and I’m so stoked to see what we create together moving forward.

Thank you so much to the entire Canadian team at Audio-Technica!!!

You can catch me live with Gaia Guarda and Alessia in Montreal on April 8th for a very special performance!

I’ll be accompanied by string players and a grand pianist as we go through a decade of my solo work like you’ve never heard it before.

There will also be special guest appearances and exclusive merch for sale this evening too! See you soon, Montreal friends!

Hello, friends on the internet. I’ve finally had a chance to catch my breath after such a wild week.

The OMAs award show was fabulous and I wanted to sent out my many thanks again to everyone involved who made it possible. I also wanted to extend my gratitude to those of you who voted.

Thanks to you I took home Artist of The Year for the second year in row. I’m so incredibly humbled and honoured by this.

The Artist of The Year award is for outstanding achievements that put my home city on the map. This year this win recognizes my work and collaborations with such acts and artists as Motionless In White, Cancer Bats, Jen Majura, Fabienne Erni, Rocky Gray, IVEEN, Phantasma Photography and many, many others. Thank you for making music with lil ol’ me, y’all!

The OMA’s was filmed and should be up online to watch very soon. Promise I’ll post it when that happens. A huge congrats again to all the winners and nominees!

Ok, now back to more new music and collabs. This really put a fire until my ass to stay inspired and focused for the year to come. I can’t wait to show y’all what’s next.

After one whole decade, my first EP “Rushing Through The Sky” is returning to streaming platforms this Friday. Make sure you’re following me on Spotify so you don’t miss it. You can also get a remastered vinyl at Schoolcraftshop.com 💿✨

What happens when you take Gothic Metal and fuse it with Folk Metal? You get a duet between Fabienne Erni (Eluveitie) and myself that includes a killer guitar solo from Jen Majura of Evanescence! 

“New World” is out now and just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. The best way you can support me and the team is by heading over to my Bandcamp page and naming your price.

I wrote this harp driven, heavy track during my isolation of 2021 about our world’s events. The song’s theme manifested into a dark lullaby with Celtic-fantasy influences. 

My intention is that this track sparks hope into the hearts of those who are feeling helpless right now. That we are reminded all good deeds, no matter how big or little, matter and make a difference. That good always prevails over evil and we are stronger than we think.

Lindsay’s Statement to the Press:

"If you know about the Twin Flame phenomenon it is because you've experienced it yourself. You meet someone that you feel you've known forever. Everything changes around you: your life, your thoughts, your path and purpose. Intensely romantic or intensely painful, they are the mirror of your soul and ignite you to "wake up" to who you truly are. 

This song came to me over the summer of 2021 and was recorded and released on my Patreon not long after. Some songs you can sit on for a while, but this one was on loop every night in my head, constantly reminding me that it wanted to be birthed. Once I had connected with Phantasma Photography over Twitter, the music video followed not long after and with so much ease. It's like it was all meant to be.

After deep diving into Twin Flame experiences shared all over the globe, Chris (Phantasma) and I started drawing up the visuals for the music video. Along with Chris's unique visual style and what resources we had available, we were able to create a smokey dreamland where the two halves of the Twin Flame long to find each other again.

While I'm usually known for releasing Gothic Metal tracks, it's abundantly clear that this song, while Ethereal and Gothic, is a bit of a departure from metal. While I have plans to release more metal tracks in 2022, on Patreon I'm exploring other avenues of dark music. I am a huge fan of electronic and Trip-Hop artists like Depeche Mode, Massive Attack, and VAST and that influence shines through here.

Creating Twin Flame was a new journey with sharing the whole creative process over Patreon. It took a bit of discipline to get out of my head, slow down, and document and share every step, but my Patrons truly appreciated it and because of that I know they feel a special connection to this track too."

The long awaited Symphonic Duet between Sarah Jezebel Deva and I is finally out!

This song is about taking back your power after enduring a long and gruelling abusive relationship. Often verbal and emotional abuse is overlooked compared to physical violence, but the after effects have proven to be equally as fatal in the long run. Sarah and I bonded over our shared struggles we've faced in the music industry and this song is an ode to our perseverance, strength, and triumph in taking back our careers and love of singing and creating music.
