single [**‘Blackmail’**](https://youtu.be/aMs3Osl0ouk) with a flashy and fun video
directed and edited by [**Michael Gucciardi**](http://www.instagram.com/m1ke.gucci),
and filmed on location at The Jam Chamber in North York, Ontario.

The second offering from the band’s new[ ](https://indiestructablerecords.com/)[**‘ON’ album**](https://indiestructablerecords.com/),
scheduled for release on September 16 via [**Indiestructable Records**](https://indiestructablerecords.com/),
follows the brazen[** ‘Underdog’**](https://youtu.be/DRjUYtitaAs).

Made up of **Lucy Di Santo** (vocals, bass), **Dan Cornelius** (drums) and **Steve
Fall** (guitars) – formerly of popular Toronto acts such as** Acid Test, Danko Jones**
and **Deliuss** – they’ve just successfully wrapped up their [**‘Underdog’ Tour**](https://onmusic.ca/home#live-dates).

“This video is a visual representation of enlightenment and empowerment”… I’m clear,
I know what the score is,” says **Lucy Di Santo**. “This is a song about empowerment,
strength, and self-actualization. It embraces recovery of one’s authentic self and
soul from external forces – whether they be human, institutional, cultural, or chemical.”

Always pushing forward with an eye on the rear-view mirror, ON pays homage to its
roots – post-punk, grunge, old-school funk and 90s college rock. With infectious
guitar riffs with a dash of p-funk groove, ON’s music recalls a listening journey
of classic albums on vinyl. While some songs are carried by emotional weight, some
are ripping mini-audio trips with invigorating twists and turns.

“This record deals with where we are today and what we’ve overcome, persevering 
as a society and as individuals. I found myself as part of a genuinely authentic
creative, human experience with Steve and Dan in various geographical locations 
including NYC, Florida and Toronto and felt the need to document it melodically.
It’s about pain, hope, reframing and overcoming. It’s about survival. The songs 
are an authentic and complete collaboration of the triad and soul connection that
is ON,” says **Lucy Di Santo**.

ON Guitarist **Steve Fall** adds, “This record is a document of friendship navigating
explores in pain, and hope. Looking at the world with a collaborative effort to 
document what we see, witness and feel through songwriting and chemistry ah band.”

Having toured the USA, Mexico and Canada, ON’s recordings have appeared on various
CFNY and CMW New Music Compilations, as well as limited cassette tape releases via
the Opcion Sonica label.

Toronto is still home for Di Santo and Fall, while Cornelius currently resides in
NYC. Written in Toronto and New York City, the pre-production recording took place
in Cape Coral in 2021 with [**Drew Howard at Star Sound Studios**](https://www.thestarsoundstudio.com/about).
