Review by Sandy Wei Photo by David Thai (@david_thai) On the snowy eve of January 19th, 2012, City and Colour walked calmly onto the Queen Elizabeth stage dressed dapper in their dark suits. And just... Read the rest on Speakerboxxx.com

El 2012 recién comienza y las buenas noticias también. Una de ellas es la octava edición de el pequeño gran festival, Indie-O Fest . Festival que desde el 2005 reúne a lo mejor de la música independiente, y queda muy claro que este año no es la excepción. Dicen los organizadores: "En esta ocasión, se trata de una curaduría más ecléctica y mutifacética, llena de coloridos musicales provenientes de emocionantes rincones de la escena independiente".

City and Colour return to NYC's Terminal 5 for an excited crowd.

Dallas Green made one of the most honest sounding albums, lyrically and musically, that I've ever heard to date. 2008's Bring Me Your Love is at times gut-wrenching, heart-breaking and soul-taking. But Dallas didn't completely go over the edge. The lyrics in "Against the Grain", track 9 off the album, don't necessarily provide any answers, but they definitely help guide us towards them. <a href=" http://soundowl.com/track/2c1u /city-and-colour-against-the-g rain" _mce_href=" http://soundowl.com/track/2c1u /city-and-colour-against-the-g rain">Download City And Colour Against The Grain</a&gt ; City And Colour Against The Grain

Watch Canadian rockers City and Colour's latest single "Weightless", from their latest release, Little Hell , performed in a studio setting with various angles and lighting. "With the 'Weightless' video it was all about using light in different ways," says frontman Dallas Green. "Light can be very sexy if you let it run wild and free."

Damian Abraham (Fucked Up's ringleader) has been doing a heckuva job since becoming the host with the most of Muchmusic's "The Wedge" back in January. Doing tons of interviews with bands and airing a few specials along the way. For this one, 45 minutes is devoted to those 3 days at Parc Jean-Drapeau for the Osheaga Music Festival last [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , Q + A Dine Alone When Alexisonfire announced they were splitting up last Friday with an official band statement by singer George Pettit, the Canadian punk band's other singer, Dallas Green , was doing what he's so often doing of late: Touring solo under his other moniker, City and Colour . It was precisely this dual life and schedule that led [...]

Alexisonfire has been one of my favorite bands for the past 10 years. Today they announced that they will be breaking up. Dallas Green and City & Colour has exploded and he simply can't manage Alexis and C&C. He is choosing City & Colour over Alexis, which is understandable. Dallas is quite possibly the hardest person to replace in the entire genre, let's call it "post-hardcore". His voice is

Em comunicado no site oficial , o vocalista do Alexisonfire , George Pettit , confirmou o fim da banda.

Filed under: News Michael Burnell, Redferns Canadian rockers Alexisonfire have decided to call it quits.

"There is no good way to put it so I'm just going to say it," lead singer George Pettit wrote in a lengthy message which was first [...]

For this 6th edition (and first 3-day affair), I was only able to attend the last day. There was a snafu with my media accreditation application (try saying that fast 3 times) but kind lady in charge of these things was able to let me in yesterday so big ups to her. Highlights for me were Cypress [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Exclusive Tasha Komery, Calgary Folk Fest Flickr This year, perhaps more than any other in its three decade history, the organizers of the Calgary Folk Festival were faced with a conundrum. As acts such as Mumford and Sons , Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver enjoy an unexpected rein at the top of the charts -- a clue that indie-folk's popular revival [...]

I might as well just keep the trend going and round out the week with yet another artist I gave no attention to back when it was relevant. Though this time it wasn't out of complete ignorance. I've always held a kind of love/hate relationship with City And Colour , although it's probably more accurate to say it's more of a lukewarm/hate one. I could never, ever get behind Dallas Green's "proper" band Alexisonfire, which I realize probably shouldn't have tainted my opinion of his solo work as much as it did, but it happened anyway. And even if [...]
