Lovliest loves, dearest dears.

It has been an incredible year for our band Canada. Aside from playing our 150th show, we got to perform at SXSW for the first time, managed to survive a mind-blowingly wonderful two month national tour during the summer and were fortunate enough to share the stage with Cotton Jones and Chris Bathgate during CMJ in NYC. We also played with some AMAZING bands (see Gentleman Auction House, listenlisten, Jumbling Towers, The Good Neighbor Policy, Or The Whale etc) and made some good new friends in the process.

So ok. Amazing year. Help us celebrate it by coming out to our VERY LAST SHOW of 2007 this Friday at The Blind Pig as the opening night of Mittenfest II. We are playing with Starling Electric, Lightning Love and The Decks. The show is helping to benefit 826michigan which, aside from being run by incredibly wonderful people, helps kids hone their most valuable asset, their CREATIVITY. How bad ass is that!

Also, we will have a Live CD for sale at the show Friday. We played a show in the middle of our summer tour at this place called Off Broadway in St. Louis with Gentleman Auction House and Jumbling Towers. It was probably one of our top 3 favoritest shows of the tour. Anywho, we managed to somehow get a recording of the performance and will be selling it at the show this Friday for $5 if anyone is interested. We have the most fun playing together live, so we hope you check that shit out yo!

So come hang with us, drink with us, celebrate the creative energies of the eight-dimensional universe with us! And then stick around for the rest of Mittenfest all weekend. It will be a very lovely way to put an end to 2007. Fact.
