Finding its home in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, what began as a folk duo consisting of guitarist/vocalist Jeremy Gaudet and bassist Richard MacLeod eventually grew into Boxer The Horse with the addition of drummer Andrew Woods and Isaac Neily on guitar and keys. Together for two years, the four almost 20-somethings have been performing around the east coast and have made stops at the Halifax pop explosion and played a showcase at the 2008 East Coast Music Awards in Fredericton.
After recording a short five song demo, the limited pressing of only 50 copies were quickly nabbed at a Battle of the Bands for 16-year old French exchange students in 2007. They followed it up with their debut EP The Late Show, which they recorded with Adam Gallant at his studio in PEI and released in April 2008. From the Beatles-y opener “Boneyard,” which was featured on PEI’s annual compilation album Well Oiled II, to the upbeat sing-a-long closer “Ohio,” The Late Show is six solid tracks emphasizing the group’s versatility and rich musical influences.
Boxer The Horse’s signature mix of classic rock n’ roll and jangly-pop draws on some of music’s biggest names including The Kinks, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Bob Dylan, and The Strokes.
Finally old enough to dive into the bar scene, Boxer the Horse has been spotted on stage alongside fellow east coasters Matt Mays, Two Hours Traffic, Dog Day, The Museum Pieces and Windom Earle. With their new EP in hand they’ll be out on tour around Atlantic Canada.

NxEW.ca is a new Canadian music group blog. We have 60 + writers across Canada (and a few in the U.S.). We welcome anyone who wants to write about Canadian music - including musicians, promoters, managers, etc. (We're not the CBC and we exist to promote Canadian music, so conflict of interest is not an issue). If you'd like to chip in on the blog or want to submit stuff for consideration for the podcast get in touch at northbyeastwest at gmail.com
In addition to the artists being played on the podcast, current writers for nxew.ca include fans of music plus journalism students, university radio hosts, and members of Library Voices, Hooded Fang (Tonka & Puma/Daps Duo), Olenka and the Autumn Lovers, Woodhands, the Rural Alberta Advantage, and the Lonely Hunters.
