If we were called something else, like "Happy Times" or "Pancakes" I think I would feel a lot more limited as far as what was "appropriate" to present to people.

What comes out comes out and we're left to deal with it. We use every technique at our disposal to help complete each fragment that wants to be a song.

Writing songs is my way of processing life just like keeping a journal or analyzing dreams helps others view what's going on under the hood.

We definitely have elements of rock, with our history of playing heavier rock, but we consciously strive for a specific vibe and tempo.

I don't mean to sound sadistic or anything, but it's very gratifying as a musician to have someone tell me that my music moved them to tears.

We're London-based and wanted to show it, but Buckingham Palace were not receptive to the idea of a rock band performing in the lobby...

For me it was in the 90s when bands were real and we didn't have the Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montana nonsense.

We simply try to make music that we find interesting and that we like. Music is just like the words we use to write a great novel.

Over the years so many people have played in and been a part of Puracane and we'll probably keep picking up hitchhikers!

This is the sort of music that is built to be enjoyed by a wide audience, and it's due to a creativity that is the result of bearing one's soul.

Simplicity seems to be his core, with just an acoustic guitar and a good voice. A wealth of experience is a catalyst when it comes to telling his story as it is.

Locus provides a different, profound point of view into a failed genre. My ridiculous questions have been answered by bandmates Jason Chu and Kaila So.

I decided to write songs that are fun, upbeat and hopefully out there to help people forget (even for just 3 min, 5 sec) the trials and tribulations that life can bring.

She's a self described nomad who has incorporated elements of her travelling as well as other bits of life into a deep, exciting hodgepodge of songs.

What does another release mean for this experienced artist whose music is a voice in all but vocals? I can't get over the fact that synthesizers could be exciting.

LLIONS had no choice but to duplicate the "L" in their name, creating an exotic "ull" sound. Listen to their music and this tongue-twister shall cease.

Their personal relationship enriches the music they produce, which will probably explain the eclectic mish-mash of normally separate genres.

This four man band is made up of a group of men who are destined to "bring back rock the way it's supposed to be". I believe that you may very well agree.

Ever since I could speak I loved to sing. After finding a very old piano in an abandoned farm house in Alberta where I grew up, I was drawn to the instrument.

Music has always been huge, keeping me grounded thoughout my crazy life. Somedays I feel angry, but as soon as I pick up the guitar, I feel a lot better.

I think music has definitely been an outlet for me. It's something that I can put 100% of myself into and it will always be there for me to fall back on.

 

Everyone in the band has their own reason for getting into this, but overall it came down to having a good time with your friends by doing the one thing you all do really well together: playing music.

 

The road to realizing my career has been anything but tedious. The journey is the thing. I know where I'm going with a goal, a destination, but exactly how I'm going to get there is well... a day to day thing.

 

Music has always been something I've appreciated as a listener. There's something about a song that explores the hard questions or tells a heart-wrenching story that reminds us we're alive.
