It marked his signing to the label after a stretch of low-key self-releases, and City Slang put it out in 2015 both digitally and on vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree songs sit on side A, opening with \"Breathe To Burn,\" the track City Slang shared to announce the record. Side B pairs \"Candy\" with \"Meditate,\" which Penner had first released as a standalone track earlier in 2015; the EP carries a new mix of it. The back cover credits Penner with writing, performing and producing everything here, with co-production by Laura Crapo and backing vocals on \"Meditate\" from Michael Cera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe concept starts from a fact Penner cited when he announced the EP: more Canadians than any other nationality are represented in the planned Mars colony. The songs imagine an abandoned crew before, during and after a one-way journey to Mars. Penner toured the UK and Europe behind it with Cera, Laura Crapo and Farley Miller in his live band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePenner co-founded the Unicorns with Nicholas Thorburn in Campbell River, British Columbia, and their album Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? came out in 2003. He later formed Clues with Brendan Reed. Canada in Space followed Exegesis, a self-produced LP he released through Bandcamp in 2014, and its third track takes that record's name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreathe To Burn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExegesis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCandy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4250506812119\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ctsg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.24.15\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"City Slang","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":67500950978718,"sku":"EVP-AC07CEE3-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/3000x3000bb_fe67cb39-1e21-4e54-aacf-0d55727bc56d.jpg?v=1791693324","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/alden-penner-canada-in-space-vinyl","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
