Ottawa Citizen’s Top Songs of ‘11 & Ottawa Xpress Sounds of ‘12

The boys have been hard at work on their upcoming EP, and are staying out of trouble (for the most part).  In the near future more light will be shed on this and on upcoming shows.



In the meanwhile, there is lots of exciting news on the press side of things to report.  Fan favourite Shockwave was chosen as one of the ten best local songs in 2011 by the Ottawa Citizen (you can read more here).



Meanwhile, over at the Ottawa Xpress, Zoo Legacy was featured in their special edition “Sounds of Ottawa 2012”. Read more here!

…if I’m being really honest, I enjoyed Zoo Legacy a whole lot more than both Thursday and House of Balloons [by The Weeknd] put together.
