a band that was carved out initially by a pair who share a remarkable ability to communicate musically. it seems that the raw pop sentiment of singer-guitarist Bucky Driedger has been refined by the theory chops of singer-keyboardist Matt Schellenberg. listening to their recorings (online at cbc radio 3 and myspace) one can see a raw talent that synthesises everything from mccartney’s ribald blues rock piano with the beatles to the jazz-noodling minimalist composition of wilco to the frenetic charisma of the pets. often accused of stealing the show from bands they open for, this is a headlining tour that should herald the rising of their star or at the very least engage and entertain any who are lucky enough to cross their path.
