Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Plain Mister Smith has unveiled his enchanting new single, “Dream Gigantic”, offering the first glimpse into his forthcoming sophomore album, Bric-a-Brac attack, due later this summer. Released via Amelia Records, the track is a warm, cinematic meditation on love, travel, and the magic of fleeting moments.
Inspired by a post-Olympic visit to Paris, “Dream Gigantic” captures the dreamlike atmosphere of the French capital in the height of summer. Rather than simply celebrating the city itself, the song explores the universal feeling of being completely present with someone you love—where the setting almost fades into the background and every moment feels larger than life.
Musically, the single blends upbeat acoustic drums, lush keyboard textures, and a grooving bassline into a rich indie-pop soundscape. The track is elevated by collaborations with Findlay Brown and Krystle Dos Santos, whose contrasting vocal styles bring depth and character to the song. Brown’s folk-inspired warmth pairs effortlessly with Dos Santos’ soulful delivery, creating a layered conversation that gives “Dream Gigantic” its cinematic quality.
Speaking about the single, Plain Mister Smith explained that he wanted to capture the feeling of “balmy exuberance” that comes with summer—those unforgettable moments that could happen anywhere in the world, whether in a Parisian café, a Tokyo park, or a New York subway, as long as they’re shared with someone special.
The release also marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the enigmatic artist. Best known as a former guitarist for the Canadian darkwave band Moev and a cellist with the Vancouver Philharmonic Orchestra, Plain Mister Smith has built a reputation for crafting immersive, genre-blurring music that balances folk, indie-pop, and orchestral influences with thoughtful storytelling.
With Bric-a-Brac attack on the horizon, “Dream Gigantic” sets the tone for what promises to be an evocative and beautifully crafted record. Romantic, transportive, and rich in atmosphere, the single showcases Plain Mister Smith at his most vivid, inviting listeners to lose themselves in a world where love, memory, and place become inseparable.
