  • Bio

    Quite simply, DrivingOnCitySidewalks was formed out of a genuine love for music. Barry started recording music in his basement about a year and a half ago. Seeing as how he played drums, and guitar it seemed like it only made sense to lay down music tracks, and build songs from those sessions. Luckily enough the small indie label Red Plane Records from France stumbled upon the Canadians music on MySpace, and from that point on, a friendship was struck, and DrivingOnCitySidewalks released the song "To Finish the Race" on the Red Plane Records Volume 3 Compilation CD. After this point, early in 2007, Red Plane asked if DrivingOnCitySidewalks would release a limited run EP through them. Which is where Darryl comes on the scene. Darryl and Barry have been friends for a while jamming together years ago. Nothing really came of that though, as Darryl went away to school, and Barry started his family with his wife. Fast forward 7 years, and Darryl is finished school, Barry has three wonderful kids with his amazing wife, and the two have teamed up again under DrivingOnCitySidewalks. The debut EP will be out February 2008 and it will be co-released under Red Plane Records in France, and Count Your lucky Stars records in USA/Canada. CYLS was started in 2008 by the amazing Michigan band empire! empire! (i was a lonely estate). e!e! and DOCS have had a friendship for over a year now, and we're totally amazed that they asked us to be a part of what they're starting. Two words... totally sweet. :-) ..............Myspace Layouts..........Myspace Codes..........Myspace Generators..........Myspace Backgrounds......

    Salut !


    The bulgarian LP

    Nouvel album disponible depuis le 15 mai


    « … Sons of Frida possède une puissance sonique et verbale contenue. Il possède en plus ce son noisy et bruitiste qui gangrène avec rugosité cette pop qui parfois vient poindre son nez. Sons of Frida joue à cache cache avec sa musique, essaie de la semer derrière un gigantesque mur de son, mais rien n'y fait, elle s’agrippe tel le lierre aux fondations même des morceaux. Ce groupe a pour influence la scène noisy tel que les immenses Sonic Youth toujours pas vieux, et du post rock plein les jambes avec Mogwaï en ligne de mire." - the frenchtouch . org

    What about Bob is a good comedy, but The Princes Bride may be my top pick.
    I'm sure the other members of 2x the Mono did something exciting for new years, but I'm the old guy in the group so I went to bed early, cause sleep is good.

    Yeah, "Dang" is pretty awesome :) haha

    I think the easiest way to get our cd(s) would be through big cartel... you can either click on the picture of our merch on our myspace underneath our songs to get to our merch page or just use this...

    10pacesfire.bigcartel.com

    I think we might put our next stuff on iTunes... we've just never gotten around to it with our past stuff. Physical cds are still my favorite though :)
