About Towers and Trees:
Montreal (Official Video): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgiR63aabCs
"One of the greatest shows I have ever witnessed, full stop front to back: performance, charisma, personality, conviction." Jon Williams, the Zone 91.3.
When Towers and Trees take the stage, something special happens. There are all the usual suspects: sweat-soaked brows, raised hands, stomping feet but there are also an awful lot of smiles, starting with the 5-7 musicians on stage. When the room is dancing, it's because T&T are dancing too, with infectious enthusiasm. In fact, there seems to be no shortage of joy and emotion at a T&T show, because founder and frontman Adrian Chalifour chose from the outset to make joy central to what Towers and Trees is all about.

About The River and The Road:

The River and The Road is a band built on risking new beginnings and telling their stories along the way.
After crossing an ocean, leaving a hemisphere, and a long stint hitch hiking across the American Southwest, singer/guitarist Andrew Phelan made his way to Chicago with the looming need to cross into Canada for work. He had two flight choices - Montreal or Vancouver - and flying west was cheaper. Once there, he found a healthy contest in singer/banjo player Keenan Lawlor, who had been playing around Vancouver for the previous eight months. In the beginning the two butted heads, seeing in each other the greatest competition for the attention of an East Vancouver open mic audience. Competition turned quickly to collaboration, and after several months as a duo, they recorded their debut eponymous twelve-track album. In the spring of 2012, the band emerged as a dynamic four-piece with the addition of drummer Cole George and bassist John Hayes.

About Mike Edel:
The Country where I Came From (Official Video): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zUXvQN0qvw
With his debut The Last Of Our Mountains, Edel has learned that home, love and youthfulness are neither innocent nor simple. Born in rural Alberta, his youth was spent between rocky mountains and vast wheat fields. These landscapes shaped the album; a sharp and urgent collection of 8 songs that give way to the adventurous, compassionate and delicate.
