Free Download of the Week: The Darcys – “House Built Around Your Voice”

May 10, 2010 in Blog

For this week’s free download of the week we’d like to introduce you to one of Toronto’s best up and coming indie rock bands. Yeah we are usually pretty Montreal-centric around here, but Toronto, Ontario’s The Darcys definitely deserve a listen or two. Not only do we have a brand new free song for you to download absolutely free, but we’ve got a link to the band’s new 7″ which they are offering up to you for free as well. The band will also be playing just over a week from now, May 18th at Quai Des Brumes with Montreal’s Armen at the Bazaar, so if you like what they do, be sure to check it out.

Starting off the night would be Toronto, Ontario’s Graham Wright (of Tokyo Police Club), followed by Vancouver, BC’s Said The Whale and then finally, Halifax, Nova Scotia’s In-Flight Safety.

Free Download of the Week: Jason Collett – “Love is a Dirty Word”

March 15, 2010 in Blog

We experienced a power failure yesterday that lasted until sometime in the middle of the night, which meant that this week’s free download of the week would have to wait until today. Since we made you wait, we made sure this week’s download would be a goody. And if Toronto, Ontario’s Jason Collett isn’t good enough for you then I don’t know what is.

Nightwood vs. Modernboys Moderngirls: The Tour

January 17, 2010 in Blog, Show Listings

There is no secret out there about the deep rooted rivalry between our fair city of Montreal and our neighbours to the South West in Toronto. It has existed in hockey for as long as hockey has existed, and apparently it exists in indie rock as well. Montreal’s Nightwood and Toronto’s Modernboys Moderngirls have reluctantly (due to recession) decided to tour together this January.
