TOUR DATES
In today's world of interchangeable bands with copy-cat styles, people are on the lookout for fresh and original music. They want songs with refrains that will echo in the mind, lyrics that aren't taken from a teenager's diary, and a vocalist with a distinct sound that becomes the band's signature. In the past that was commonplace, but recently, formula has surpassed creativity. The prolific words of Sam Cooke declared "a change is gonna come." It's time for that change, and littleSUNDAY is at the forefront.
The Toronto area quartet's lead vocals and rhythm guitar are mastered by frontman Rick Farrell. The rest of the band is comprised of JP handling lead guitar duties as well as backing vocals, Mario Stamegna on bass and backing vocals, and Eric Bonatti adding the drums and percussion to the mix. .
The group has experimented with various genres, and in the end melded all of their influences into the radio-friendly alt-rock sound they possess today. It is one that will easily fit with Canadian artists that are popular today, as evidenced by their recent pairings with comparative acts such as Default, Grady, Thornley, Suzie McNeil, Edwin, Honeymoon Suite, See Spot Run, Jonas, and The Mudmen. Make no mistake that littleSUNDAY is a strictly commercial band though, as their music brings something to the table for everyone: crunching guitar riffs and a solid drum attack for the rock purists, poignant lyrics to draw in the sentimentalists, and hooks that catch the attention of all those in between. Their tracks do not alienate nor exclude listeners. The band's approach has become to create a common ground, and taking everything into consideration…mission accomplished.
The accolades they've received already are proof positive that they deserve more than just casual consideration. From inclusion on numerous compilation CDs, rotation airplay on various radio stations, endorsements by highly respected instrument companies, it is readily apparent that people are taking notice. Is the "next big thing" littleSUNDAY? Some questions in life are tough to answer, but this one is easy – unequivocally yes!
