Glow Motive is so-called Vancouver's favourite new brown queer pop duo, born via email collaboration during the early pandemic. Having now played many of the city's best-loved queer events, they are ready to give their audience some tunes to play on repeat!

Glow Motive is a collaboration between prolific poet/songwriter/musician/loop pedalist Anjalica Solomon (she/her/they) and seasoned musician/producer Oceaan Pendharkar (they/them). Creating together has made them grow not only as artists but has also deepened the relationships they have with their brown, queer, gender non-conforming communities. They want other people like them to have the opportunity to see themselves and their experiences in art.

Glow Motive's heart-warming pop sound is characterized by their luscious vocal layers and emotive lyrics. In their live show, their infectious melodies are known to bring together a diverse crowd and make everyone truly experience their feelings. They recently released their debut single and music video “Show Me You're Here” in February of 2023.
