WAASH — the latest, pop-refining project from Vancouver songwriter Andrew Bishop — is releasing its self-titled full-length with “Might As Well Know.” A soaring, synth-coursing statement on putting up boundaries as a form of self-care, the single arrives through WAASH’s label home, Light Organ Records.

The WAASH LP was written during a time of isolation and separation. During this particular period, Bishop began to take stock of what was important to him and his relationships. So despite the feelings of loneliness being an inspiration for the album, it was the ability to spend those moments writing music with his closest friends which helped him finish it.

Even if WAASH’s new album reflects the wisdom of withdrawing, the project likewise found songwriter Andrew Bishop nurturing friendships with a number of familiar collaborators. Lyrics were often co-written with Courtney Ewan Hancock, Bishop’s longtime partner in pop-rock outfit Twin River, and Louise Burns, the esteemed songwriter/producer Bishop had first met when he’d briefly entered her back-up band a decade ago.
