Adam and The Amethysts

Adam and The Amethysts Folk music has seen a revival in the last few years with acts like Mumford & Sons, Fleet Foxes and The Avett Brothers manning the helm. With this comes the fear that folk with find it's way down the same path that alternative metal has found itself with every band showing up on the radio sounding exactly the same as the last one that had its 15 minutes of fame before fading off into oblivion. Adam and The Amethysts takes the folk music that Canadians love but add elements of psych rock, The Beatles and Neil Young [...]

New Folk Pop from Adam & the Amethysts

New Folk Pop from Adam & the Amethysts When bands come at you with a press release with loads of references and name-dropping, sometimes you get a bit skeptical. Can they really fit that all into one album? Regardless of allusions to modern acts, what I do know is that I fucking love this track from Adam & the Amethysts . It features non-traditional percussive stylings, rising harmonies and a pleasant overall vocal. Such things generally make me happy on most days. You can find this little number on the band's new record, Flickering Flashlight , on March [...]

Adam & The Amethysts - Prophecy

Adam & The Amethysts - Prophecy Not only did Adam & The Amethysts make one of my favorite albums of the year but they use the Auld Lang Syne melody so perfectly that this has become my official New Years song, plus it's a free download on bandcamp. It's a wonderful way to ring in 2012. "Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to problems that upset you" is good advice to follow. Stay tuned for a new years mix and my favorite albums list in the next few days. Best wishes to you all. [...]

Rebekah Higgs has songs, streams, shows, videos

Rebekah Higgs has songs, streams, shows, videos Rob Fournier Five years is no small amount of time with regards to most things of a human scale, but for an artist following up a promising debut album, as Halifax native Rebekah Higgs was for her 2006 self-titled effort, it's an extraordinary wait. But Higgs wasn't idle in that time releasing a mini-album of heavily synthesized dance music as Ruby Jean & The Thoughtful Bees in 2009, and now with that itch scratched - at least for now - she's finally back with her second pop album, Odd Fellowship .

Prophecy fulfilled

Prophecy fulfilled (photo: Frank Yang) I've seen the name Adam & The Amethysts floating around out there, in and out of my inbox in various manners and forms: as contributors to Herohill's excellent Gordon Lightfoot contribution , as remixers of Young Galaxy's "We Have Everything" , and performers in their own right. But it wasn't until I heard their new single, "Prophecy", from their forthcoming second LP Flickering Flashlight that I really sat up and took notice of this Montreal-based band. And I use the term [...]

Hump Day Hustle – August 17, 2011

Hump Day Hustle – August 17, 2011 Well here we are, half way through another cold week in the mountains. I'm really hoping the sun breaks through soon as this weekend I will taking off to Dunster, BC for the Robson Valley Music Festival . As a first time attendee, I have been forewarned of the unavoidable hippy interactions coming my way in a few days. Overall, I am not too familiar with many of the bands playing at the RVMF but there seems to be a good contingent of Vancouver-based Folk acts...which should be nice. Instead of getting ready for the [...]

Prophecy

It's always strange to think about how a band like Adam & The Amethysts has remained on the periphery of the Canadian music scene for so long. The band began its life in Montreal, way back in 2004, as a creative outlet for Telefauna and Miracle Fortress member Adam Waito, and drew enough of a fanbase to warrant the release of a full-length record, Amethyst Amulet , back in 2008, but the tracks of that album never seemed to provide the band with enough momentum to break out beyond their hometown. Since then, [...]

Adam & The Amethysts – Prophecy [Listen/Download]

Adam & The Amethysts – Prophecy [Listen/Download] Finally it's time to mention the news about Adam & The Amethysts . When I attended NXNE 2011 in June. I happened to bump into Jon Bartlett of Kelp Records at the Polaris Music Prize Longlist ceremonies. He gave me a demo CD of Adam & The Amethysts's new upcoming album "Flickering Flashlight". I literally dropped my jaw because the album is going to be released on Kelp Records. I would say Adam & The Amethysts is the first non-Ottawa act to be on the label. I heard the whole album [...]

herohill vs. Gordon Lightfoot: Turning Back The Pages Of My Sweet Shattered Dreams

herohill vs. Gordon Lightfoot: Turning Back The Pages Of My Sweet Shattered Dreams So hear it is. The result of months of hard work from some of our favorite bands across this nation (and even a special cameo from one of our favorite American outfits). Basically, the idea was simple: Pay tribute to a Canadian legend on Canada Day. Oh, and get some free content for the blog of course. In all seriousness, Gordon Lightfoot has been making music for decades and his stories are passed from generation to generation. Unfortunately, when asked about the greatest Canadian songwriters, Gordon is often left off the list. [...]
