Canadian Indie Music Spotlight

we be jammin'

jamming - Pronounciation: jam·ming:

- to jam is an expression used by musicians to describe performing together without a set purpose or itinery.
- to improvise freely, esp. in a jam session
- jam sessions are often used to develop new material, find suitable arrangements, or simply as a social gathering and communal practice session. Jam sessions may be based upon existing songs or forms, may be loosely based on an agreed chord progression or chart suggested by one participant, or may be wholly improvisational.
- "Jamming" is a song by the reggae band Bob Marley & the Wailers from their 1977 album Exodus.


well that's what they say anyway...basically we like to throw down and flex our muscles, musically speaking of course! For your viewing pleasure we've edited out one of the jams from our latest show...be prepared for our "peanut butter & jam" version of All That You Dream...it's downright tasty!

All That You Dream - Live at The Great Hall

spring has sprung!

- we have a brand new video out! it's for the song "Be My Baby" and it's a live compilation of shows we've played over the past year. Believe it or not, we just passed our 1 year anniversary of playing live (March 28th) and we wanted a way to say thank you to everyone who's helped us along the way, in every way! It's also a way to clear the decks, so to speak, as we have a bunch of new things coming up & out...singles, videos, shows, etc. so stay tuned!!! Carmelo spent a lot of time plowing through videos from different shows and editing it, this is the fruit of his labour! Check it out here:

Be My Baby

wanted: dead or alive!!!

we've seen a million faces and we've rocked them all!!!

actually...we've only seen a few and they kinda dug it...

If you've been sitting on the edge of your seat waiting for the next chapter in this Melting Pot saga then fret no more! I told you that we could rebuild him! Darin's bionic hand is in full working order and ready to rock!!!

first order of business? ROCK!
