New CD "Bloodlines" available now at Compact Music Ottawa!
Brothers Chaffey have finished recording their new album with Ken Friesen (the Sadies/Tragically Hip) and it is available now!. New tracks are up on the myspace player. Check back often for show updates and summer tour info.
Formed in 2004 the Brothers Chaffey are a roots rock n' roll band hailing from Ottawa, Ontario. The sibling team of Matthew (lead vocals/guitar), and younger brother Curtis (lead guitar/vocals) have been performing together for 10 years in various acts. Since 2005, the Brothers Chaffey have performed consistently with Dave Macdonald (bass) and Nick Diak (drums) as their rhythm section and the foundation to the band's sound. More recently the band has expanded their line-up by adding a new member, Adam Puddington (guitar/vocals). This driving version of the band delivers powerful rhythms and a distinct groove.
The vitality and intensity of their music has earned the Brothers Chaffey a reputation for up-tempo, dancehall, rock n' roll shows. They have toured from coast to coast and maintained a solid fan base in Halifax, Toronto and Ottawa in support of their first record release Harbord Street Soul. During 2008/09 the Brothers collaborated with engineer/producer Ken Friesen (Tragically Hip/the Sadies) to create Bloodlines, their second full length LP and their most rock n' roll sound to date.
“The Brothers Chaffey are brave old souls in a brave new world.” - Sylvie Hill Ottawa XPress

This month we mostly have Catie Curtis (with a Richard Thompson cover), Lindsay Fuller and The Cheap Dates (and who amongst us isn't?), Josh Fix with a track from the well-titled album This Town Is Starting To Make Me Angry and the rather lovely Red Rooster.
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
