ST. DOVAL

Canadian rock artist St. Doval has unveiled his latest single, ‘Kids of Our Time‘, a powerful, hook-driven Rock anthem that blends raw nostalgia with the restless energy of modern life.
Equal parts personal memoir and cultural commentary, the track captures what it feels like to grow up in an age of economic uncertainty, digital noise, and fading innocence.
With vivid lyrics that recall ‘full of dreams of a big red house‘, ‘Kids of Our Time‘ paints a snapshot of a childhood untouched by screens, contrasted against the chaotic backdrop of modern day life.
The song’s propulsive rock instrumentation underscores its emotional push-and-pull – a longing to return to the optimism of youth while wrestling with the reality of today’s confusing social, economic and political world.
St. Doval:
“I remember the time before the internet and what that felt like. We might be the last kids to ever grow up without likes, follows, and filters. For many of us, adulthood doesn’t look like it used to. Owning a home, starting a family – the milestones we grew up expecting – feel out of reach, so we’ve had to redefine what it means to grow up – even if that means not growing up at all.”
Written and produced by J.C. Sandoval, the creative force behind St. Doval, the track builds on his decades of live performance experience, from touring Canada and internationally sharing stages with notable rock acts such as Marilyn Manson, The Subways and Tommy Stinson (The Replacements).
Known for his emotionally charged lyrics and electrifying shows, he has cultivated a dedicated fanbase that connects deeply with his blend of anthemic choruses and grounded storytelling.
