If you ticked yes to all the boxes above, you are probably one part of the new group Human Highway , made up of Jim Guithre and Nick Thorburn better known for fronting Islands .

Fellow Canucks Nick Thorburn ( Islands ) and Jim Guthrie (formerly of Royal City ) have merged into the superb alt/folk Canadian duo of Human Highway .
