Now get dressed up and let MusicUnderFire light the way. [...]

I like watching bands get better. And from these earlier posts , you can see that I've been watching this 5-piece band from Hamilton (with songs about factories) grow into a powerhouse live band with a great album to back it up. Charlemagne became Arkells and Arkells have come into their own. This year the band signed a deal with Dine Alone Records ( City and Colour, Attack In Black ) and it seems to have steered the band in the right direction. [...]

TEGAN AND SARA played the second of two nights at Terminal 5 last night with GIRL IN A COMA and CITY AND COLOUR supporting. Check out photos from the show after the jump. GIRL IN A COMA CITY AND COLOUR [...]

WORCESTER, MA - OCTOBER 4, 2008 Although the Palladium was filled with a crowd that consisted of mostly underage teens (all of whom were anxiously awaiting the arrival of Tegan and Sara ), I have to say, when opening acts, Girl in a Coma and City and Colour took the stage, the audience was surprisingly accepting and enthusiastic. A lot of times those young crowds tend to get a bit impatient with opening acts while waiting for the headliner to take the stage, but I was both pleased with the positive response. Girl [...]

That's tonight and probably the hotest ticket in town here in Toronto. XM radio's 'The Verge' (channel 52, focusing on new and emerging indie and alternative sounds from Canad) has decided to give away $50,000 to support Canadian music by giving away 25k to the best album and 25k to the best artist. Also, this award (unlike next week's Polaris prize) is determined by the public in online voting. The long list was created from bands in regular rotation on the station, starting with 150 artists and 73 albums, [...]

I'd like to give a shout out to one miss Reilly Muckey. Reilly's a pretty awesome gal to hang around and quite the looker too but that's all beside the point because the point's not whether I'd ever make out with a girl named Reilly Muckey and how appropriate that would or would not be. The point happens to be that Reilly has a favorite band that she talks about ad nauseam. Okay, so, lots of people do [...]

No commentary this week, but yes there is a theme and there is a reason for it. I just won't tell you what that reason is. MP3: City and Colour - "Sensible Heart" MP3: {{{SUNSET}}} - "Man's Heart Complaint" MP3: Slow Runner - "Trying To Put Your Heart Back Together" MP3: The [...]

City and Colour - Bring Me Your Love Verdict: Indifferent (~) City and Colour - Sensible Heart

This info came up in my Facebook this morning and I was NEVER so annoyed to not be [...]
( 2 votes, average: 4.5 out of 5) Loading ... Al quarto 'martini' appena mescolato l'oliva fa ancora il suo giro circolare nel bicchiere. Tutto si risolve in un'evidente consequenzialità. E così capita che dopo che abbia letto un articolo sui Kraftwerk , ascolti un album di una semplicità disarmante. Dodici ballate per chitarra, senza sofisticherie, senza salamelecchi elettronici o quant'altro; solo un uomo e le sue sei corde. [...]

This was authored while I was on vacation, roling through the Rocky Mountains and bein' reflective. Right now Jenny and I are driving through the mountains of Alberta on our way to B.C. It was almost this time last year when my trip through the mountains in the dead of night revealed the National's Boxer to me in such stark light and the trip and the accompanying music has me thinking once again. The conditions are different right now; I haven't been alone with my thoughts for the last eight hours hurtling [...]
we're throwing around ideas for a few new "features" for the page, nothing too serious, just some things to keep people coming back to the site. album reviews, previews, video postings, original content, debuts & premieres, sneak peeks, etc. as such, we're going to start trolling myspace for bands we feel raise ever so slightly above the normal content of a "myspace band" in a day and age when labels can be made or broken by how many play counts their artists can acquire. I don't know if we're going to start doing this weekly or monthly, but I guess [...]

City & Colour - Waiting City & Colour - Constant Knot City & Colour - Hello, I'm in Delaware Today, when I opened up my Myspace (evil, evil myspace), they had an advertisement for City & Colour. Seems they've started up a new section of the social networking system called 'Transmissions' which features some bands that are really under the radar, and some that aren't.
