Sloan + Hot Kid June 27, 2011

Sloan is four distinct songwriting voices - guitarists Patrick Pentland and Jay Ferguson, bassist Chris Murphy and drummer Andrew Scott - that nonetheless form a cohesive collective. Long-time Toronto scenesters who will always call Halifax home.

Muchmusic and rock-radio regulars who - via their own murderecords label - maintain strong ties to their indie roots. Money-city maniacs who have a soft spot for sweet sugar tunes. Music vets who, instead of coasting on their cred, continue to challenge themselves with each record.

Hot Kid's Shiloh Harrison and Peter McIntosh have thrown themselves on the alter of Canadian indie rock, bridging the gap between traditional country twang and melodic noise. In the spirit of hardworking bands like Eric's Trip and Change of Heart, Cambridge, Ontario's rock'n roll life line are doing things the most honest and genuine way they can. Since the independent release of their debut full length Got It To Give in 2006, and it's re-release with premiere Quebec label P572 and Local Distribution in 2007, this gutsy two-piece has been making their mark as a unique, gritty rock rock band on the Canadian scene.
