There is just something so vital about this band. Every single one of their songs has a sense of grandness about it, they’re heavy with the weight of emotion, and yet they seem to propel forwards at full speed.

Artist: Lowell “Shake Him Off”
Album:
If You Can Solve This Jumble


This is such a killer song – soaring, icey, pop vocals, hiccup overtop of pounding tribal rhythms. 

Sounds like: Catch Lowell during CMW 2013 at Lees Palace, Church of the Holy Trinity, and Danforth Music Hall.

Artist: Pick A Piper “All Her Colours”
Album:
Self-Titled


You might have heard this song catching some airplay lately and rightfully so. “All Her Colours” feels like it’s happening just beneath the radar – it’s discrete in it’s delivery, but totally get’s inside your head and carves out a space in your memory.

Sounds like: Catch Pick A Piper during CMW 2013 at Rancho Relaxo.
