The First Of Many

So this is the first blog of many to come, we will start with a bit of music(It is my most important topic). To begin I am going to start with a bit of what I'm really into, CANADA baby. I have to say the Canadian music scene right now is amazing, bands and solo artists that are just awesome. To start I will mention the favorite man in my life right now, Dallas Green. Dallas Green is the member of screamo/post-hardcore group Alexisonfire which takes that scene to a whole new level. With three singers to back up the heavy drums and quick guitar riffs, Alexisonfire is bringing something different to screamo. Dallas is also a solo artist that goes by City&Colour, City for Dallas and Colour for Green. This man has one of the most beautiful and soothing voices that you will ever hear hands down, I urge everyone to check him out. Next up is Matthew Good, started as a full band and is now a solo artist which I think suits him more. He is a very interesting man and frequently blogs on his website about political and social issues. His music is quite haunting with the way he puts together his words, one of the best songwriters Ive come across. Lastly I will make a side note of Neverending White Lights, a musical project by Daniel Victor. All the music made by the band is composed by Daniel Victor but every song has a different Canadian singer. Those are a few of many awesome Canadian musicians I am into, please check them out...its quite worth it.

  1. Canadian music is pretty good of late. You should give Great Big Sea a listen.

  2. I've known about City & Color for a while, but didn't realize it was for Dallas Green. I like the way he used his real name to create a stage name. :) Way to get the blog started, by the way! :)
