They’ve been issuing a steady stream of singles leading up to the release of their second album, Busting Visions, which comes out March 27th. In the meantime, you can stream the full release exclusively here. ZEUS PRESS KIT ROLLING STONE MARCH 2012 Could Toronto’s Zeus be the next great Canadian band? BEN CAPLAN At a sound check at Toronto’s Horseshoe Tavern, with beers on their amplifiers, Zeus rips through their new album, Busting Visions. They switch instruments, obsess over sound levels and noodle inces- santly across the past six decades of popular tunes. Zeus have been touted by Broken Social Scene’s Jason Collett as the next great Ca- nadian rock band and now they’re headlining Friday night’s marquee event at the end of Canadian Music Week. For the four musi- cians from small town Ontario, the group may finally be arriving at a sound they’ve been working toward since they were kids. “I woke up the other day and something felt different. I can feel it, potential, and it makes for some nervous energy,” says Neil Quin, 26, one of three members of Zeus who writes songs, plays bass and guitar and also sings. “We’ve definitely put in our time and rose up through the ranks,” adds Mike O’Brien, 31, who fell in with his bandmates when Afie Jurvanen, who records as Bahamas, left their group to play stadiums with Feist.

  • PRESS KIT – LINDA Mcrae Shadow Trails Borealis Records 42RPM
    PRESS KIT – LINDA McRAE Shadow Trails Borealis Records 42RPM LINDA MCRAE – BIOGRAPHY New Folsom Prison provides the starting point for new Linda McRae album California’s Folsom State Prison occupies a hallowed place in the history of country music. As the location of several Johnny Cash performances and the subject of his song “Folsom Prison Blues,” it has become a symbol of the “outlaw” element of outlaw country. Now, some 60 years after Cash first put it on the map, the California State Prison complex has had a transformational impact on another country roots musician: Canada’s Linda McRae. After answering a call to host a song-writing workshop at New Folsom in 2011, McRae and her husband, James Whitmire, were moved to develop song-writing workshops for at-risk youth – to try and prevent them from ending up behind bars in the first place. Her new, Steve Dawson- produced album, Shadow Trails, is inspired by that work. Though perhaps best-known for her eight-year tenure as a member of the platinum-selling band Spirit of the West, Linda McRae had already raised a daughter and performed for more than ten years with west coast punk and roots outfits before joining Spirit. In fact, the band members were regulars at shows by her previous roots rock band, Terminal City. She joined Spirit in 1988 and is heard prominently on two of its most famous and enduring songs, “Home for a Rest” and “If Venice is Sinking.” In 1995, she and the band performed and recorded with Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and released the resulting recording, Open Heart Symphony.The following year, she left the Spirit to launch a solo career and has been charting at folk and roots radio ever since.
