I am doing some research and wondering if Beyond can help me out a bit. I am looking for a up and coming CANADIAN band to work with for a television project. They need to have a name that is recognizable, but not superstar status yet. I don't want Our Lady Peace or Nickelback. Thinking more along the lines of:

-City and Colour
-Alexisonfire
-The Trews
-Mobile
-Pilate
-Arcade Fire
-Broken Social Scene
-Never Ending White Lights

If people can offer up some suggestions that would be great. If people want to flame it, take it else where. They will be doing a song for a television promotion / show opening. Thanks for the help.

:D

They probably just enjoy it. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

They were at Sait St. Paddy's day... Ripped it up.

Hedley are shit. Wannabe rockstar from Crappy Idol gets a record label to assemble a "band" for him and play cheesy, predicticle crap. Go away and lose the attitude.

Beija Flor. I suggest checkin these guys out, VERY original band. Sittin Idol, but I'm not sure if they're still around, but they were also real good.

Instead of Broken social scene, id say do "The Most Serene republic". They are under the same label and have pretty similar music, but i find The most serene republic to have catchier songs.. and i think its just starting to head up the college charts. Check it out.
