Details:
PLUMTREE was a quartet from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Formed in 1993 when the sisters Gillis met up with Amanda Braden, Plumtree quickly established themselves as one of the more original young bands in Canada. With the addition of Catriona Sturton on bass, the band quickly developed a highly collaborative songwriting method which combined catchy melodies, a serious approach to writing music and solid instrumentation to produce the group''s finest material to date.
Attracting attention when they were still in their mid-teens, PLumtree appeared on several compilation cds, released several 7" records, the FLUTTER BOARD ep, the MASS TEEN FAINTING cd, PLUMTREE PREDICTS THE FUTURE, their most recent THIS DAY WON''T LAST AT ALL (on Endearing) and 4 videos. All the group''s releases received excellent press and campus radio with PREDICTS THE FUTURE holding the NUMBER 1 spot on Canadian Campus Radio for 4 weeks.
Recorded by Lawrence Currie (SLOAN, JALE), PTF featured solid rhythms under scoring bittersweet vocals and lyrics which focused on the light-hearted side of the human condition. The album earned the band a nomination for the East Coast Music Awards while the band''s music and continuous hard work saw them honoured with a Youth Achievement Award from Canada''s nationally broadcast Youth Television cable network (YTV).
