La Force is Ariel Engle, vocalist and newest member of Broken Social Scene, whose acclaimed 2017 album Hug of Thunder features her undeniable vocals on "Stay Happy" and "Gonna Get Better."

Balancing grace and ferocity, she creates a dusky universe of godless devotional music that comes straight from the beating heart. The new single “Lucky One” is hazy R&B balladry, with a mournful tune so beautiful and lonesome it stops everything. The song “is about the fickle hand of fate,” Engle says, “having it all and knowing you can lose it at any time.” La Force is orbital soul music, with Engle’s magnetic voice at its core. Borrowing her identity from the tarot card representing Strength – depicting a woman with gentle dominance over a lion – ‘La Force’ captures the tender / powerful balance of the music. Performed with Warren Spicer (Plants & Animals), Liam O’Neill (SUUNS), Mishka Stein (Patrick Watson), and David French (BSS), “Lucky One” reflects the reverential tone and universal, collaborative nature of La Force. Stepping up to the role first helmed by the immeasurable talents Leslie Feist, Emily Haines (Metric), and Amy Millan (Stars), Engle brings La Force's singularity to the familial energy of Broken Social Scene.
