On Blurring Time (2025), Bells Larsen reduces time to a series of patient ceremonies. Guided by the (deserved) satisfaction of simply "being" as a political act, the album draws on the many ways we write the existence of the ever-evolving "self." Designed to align with the chronology of his transition, he intentionally recorded his previous "high" voice and instrumentation in 2022, waited for his voice to deepen after he began taking testosterone, and then asked his longtime collaborator and friend, Georgia Harmer, to write vocal arrangements for his new "low" voice, helping him harmonize with his past self—an intentional, multilingual act of surrendering to change. The album received glowing reviews in La Presse, Le Devoir, Tout Le Monde En Parle, The Guardian, The Toronto Star, and Exclaim! and numerous other media outlets last year, and was also longlisted for the Polaris Prize. Oscillating between 1990s lo-fi indie and intense folk ballads, Graham Ereaux-produced Blurring Times features his time-suspended vocals. While on his previous projects Larsen placed his voice in the background, here he unites and positions both voices front and center on a bold and moving album. Larsen's meticulously crafted arrangements evoke Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens, and Adrienne Lenker, while the lyrics meditate on sibling dynamics, the creation of a queer world, and shared epiphanies, all wrapped in soundscapes of quiet intimacy.

How can we forge new forms of coming home to ourselves? On his sophomore album Blurring Time (2025), Bells Larsen collapses time into a series of patient ceremonies. Guided by the satisfaction of simply “being” as a political act, the record explores the ways we write the ever-arriving self into existence. Oscillating between lo-fi 90s indie and searing folk ballads, Larsen's project features the haunting accompaniment of voices frozen in time. Intentionally designed to align with the timeline of his transition, he recorded his previous “high” voice and instrumentation in 2022, waited for his voice to drop after starting testosterone, and asked longtime friend and frequent collaborator Georgia Harmer to arrange harmonies for his new “low” voice. Together, they created a multilingual, intentional act of surrendering to change. Unlike past projects where vocals were set in the backdrop, Blurring Time unites both voices at the forefront, delivering an unyielding devotional. Produced by Graham Ereaux, Larsen's intricately-crafted arrangements evoke Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens, and Adrienne Lenker. His lyrics meditate on sibling dynamics, queer world-making, and shared epiphanies, enveloped in soundscapes of quiet intimacy. Blurring Time was longlisted for the 2025 Polaris Prize and spent five weeks at #1 on the Canadian campus radio charts, garnering press in The Guardian, NPR, Cosmopolitan, The Toronto Star, Billboard, Paste, The Line of Best Fit, Under the Radar, CBC, to name a few. Larsen has shared stages with the likes of Buck Meek (Big Thief), Land of Talk, Dan Mangan, and Martha Wainwright, and recently performed at the Pitchfork London Music Festival. While his past projects have reached outward in love and loss, Blurring Time archives Larsen's journey of self-actualization, harmonizing voices of past and present into a quiet submission to the constant state of becoming.
