His first full-length record Repentance is a tapestry of twelve elegantly crafted pieces – each inspired by his personal journey coming of age. Recorded at Buena Vista Audio with Producer/Multi- instrumentalist Jonathan Anderson (Aidan Knight, In Medias Res, Sheree Plett) Repentance bursts with honest prose and vibrant melodies, powered by Klassen’s enchantingly tender vocals. Since the release of Repentance in the fall of 2013 via Nevado Records Klassen has been named CBC’s Canadian act to watch of 2014, toured North America (sharing the stage with bands such as Rhye, Royal Canoe, and Good For Grapes) and played several successful showcases at this past SXSW.
