Irish pop - Call club to confirm time! Half Canadian (Ottawa natives), and half Irish - Angel Pier will be making their Ottawa debut on March 9th at Babylon. The band will be coming straight from their first ever Canadian Music Week show and will be quickly heading to Austin after the gig to represent Canada and Ireland and SXSW! Fully formed in 2006, it all began with the intention of pinning melancholic melodies to a gothic groove. Thrown together by a mutual friend at a chance meeting one night in Whelans in Dublin, Darragh (vocals, guitar), and Mark (Drums) quickly found the intended direction and began pursuing refinement. Canadian guitarist Luke & bass groove merchant Vinny Redmond were then bolstered on to complete the line up. The heart now a solid groove recalling elements of the Stone Roses and the Cure, Luke's classic blues rock sound, which lies somewhere between the Pixies and the Beatles, sat comfortably on top of the straight rhythm guitar and looping backbone. | |||||
