New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Toronto's millennial pop band, VALLEY are excited to share their earnest new song, "A Phone Call In Amsterdam" through Universal Music. "A Phone Call In Amsterdam" explores the apprehension of expressing love and how that can be amplified by distance. The lyrics call out for reassurance and the melody responds with hopeful anticipation. A love song for long distance relationships.
Lead singer, Rob Laska explains further, "'A Phone Call in Amsterdam' very much exists on its own with texture and space. It carries a lot of emotional concept about distance and love between two people that are physically not in the same space but the melodies are very hopeful- the juxtaposition really gives it feeling and that final drop feels like fleeing. It's very much a huge definition of who we are in terms of sound, melodies and structure."
The song follows the band's release of their EP, MAYBE: Side A which was released in November of last year and is the first installment of a larger comprehensive project. MAYBE: Side A, reengaged VALLEY's existing fanbase and caught the attention of the indie music scene, garnering features with The 405, Idobi
Radio and current radio play on Indie 88.

VALLEY, comprised of Rob (vocals), Mike (guitar), Alex (bass), and Karah (drums), are all musically trained, multi-instrumentalists that met when a recording studio double-booked their sessions and encouraged them to try playing together. The born-and-raised Canadians seized the opportunity in disguise and began developing what would ultimately become one of the most refreshing and engaging new bands of the decade. The facets that define the generation are inexorably woven into every aspect of who Valley is and what makes them incredible. From their DIY work ethic, their bottomless optimism, their bitter sweet relationship with social media and a voracious appetite for authenticity in an often overly manufactured media landscape.
