ROCK: Album Rock, POP: Pop Underground
Details:
In 2001, in a small apartment over a pawn shop in downtown Toronto, three roommates, classmates and newly certified audio engineers were fusing together the sound of drums, guitars, and an organ. Fully focused on this classic sound of rock and roll; oblivious to the goings on on the street below; and oblivious to the police presence outside their door, Open Wide Music was born.
Chris Munro (guitar & vocals), James Lockhart (vocals, organ, & guitar), and Matt "Tweed" Jones (drums), met each other in 1999 while attending Harris Institute, where they were studying music production. And while they''ve long since left their flat at Church & Dundas, and while it''s since been destroyed by a fire and is still boarded up, Open Wide Music lives on.
Joined by long time friend, Sean Coleman on the bass, Open Wide Music set up their own professional recording facility at home in 2006 and recorded almost 20 songs. From these sessions comes their second release, "Anthropic". A departure from their first album, "Versi¨un 01", this new material represents a cross section of everything this band can do. From the heavy rock of the first track "Achilles" through to the country influence of "The Nile" (complete with 3-part harmonies) Open Wide Music likes to do it all.
Since their inception, OWM continues to evolve. Constantly writing and perfecting their songs, the band has been churning out new material for almost every show. And whether you find them putting on one of their popular Neil Young tribute shows with their friends, or challenging each other with acoustic guitars, bass, and hand-drums at a backyard party, Open Wide Music is always working on something and they''re always going to keep it interesting.
Since Sean''s departure, the current trio of Open Wide Music is playing live once again with Andy Wright - fellow Harris grad and bassist from their first album "Versi¨un 01". They are currently working with recordings from 2006 and continue to record new material.
Expect 3 EP''s in 2007, but don''t expect the same music! The first EP, "Anthropic" is available now and, of course, you can hear most all of the new songs and old favourites as they play clubs in Toronto and around southern Ontario.
