Slim Unseen

Friends of Wavelength know Slim Twig from the diverse music he creates under his own name or in the wicked duo Tropics. With a good stack of EPs and LPs on vinyl, tape and old fashioned CD, Slim has a ton of great material you should check out if you want to hear one of Toronto's most distinct artists. You can find his solo releases here. But when he isn't busy writing another record or out on tour Slim can be found in front of the camera in a different kind of performance. As Billy Zero in Bruce McDonald's Tracey Fragments, Slim Twig played a small but important role in the development of Ellen Page's lead character. Slim Twig now takes center focus as Kitz Harrington in the upcoming Canadian indie feature film Sight Unseen, produced by Jennifer Hazel and Ross Turnbull and written, edited and directed by Ross Turnball (who some may know from Charles St. Video). From playing the real life role of 'son' to his parents to now the lead actor in their newest feature, Sight Unseen is truly a family affair, one which finds Slim coming full circle, going from music to acting and back to music as he composes brand new pieces to score the film. Read on as Slim discusses acting verses music making, working with your parents and film scoring verses songwriting and get a preview of three pieces of the film score composed by the man himself.
