Live From THE HORSESHOE TAVERN JAN 21, 2010
Live How You Live is a Canadian band, a journey and a state of mind. In 2006 Carm Milioto released his first album named “Scenes from Then and Now", although it was a full production, the music was showcased acoustically as a solo performance. At the beginning of the writing process for his second record in 2007, Carm secured a show at the world renowned “Whisky a Go Go” in Hollywood, California. Accompanied by Ryan Boyko on his trip, little did they know the experience and events to follow would be the start of an exciting musical adventure.
Carm found himself writing many songs and lyrics during their stay in Venice Beach and came back to Hamilton with enough material to begin the writing of his second album. As the album came closer to being completed, Carm had realized he wanted more for the music and how it would be presented. In order for the music to reach people how it was written and intended to sound, he realized he needed to put together a full band.
The days of the acoustic soloist were over and the inception of a new rock band had arrived. Joined by Ryan Boyko on bass guitar, Dylan Panton on guitar and long time friend, Todd Hornby on drums “Live How You Live” was formed. The band name was taken from a lyric line in one of the songs off of the CD, aptly named “The Venice Sessions” (Nominated for Best Rock Album @ 2009 Hamilton Music Awards), which was released in February of 2009. The songs are all based on real life experience and the music is a fresh, clean sound with overtones of funk and blues. It is reminiscent of comfort and is emotionally charged and delivered.
In 2009, LHYL – did nothing but hit the high notes. They were awarded Local Group of the Year (by Peoples’ Choice) at the 2009 Hamilton Music Awards, which showed how much love and support the group gets from the fans. They also won Musical Event of the Year for the Don't Stop Continue CD Release. The Venice Sessions was also nominated for the Rock Recording of the Year. It was a perfect cap on a year that saw LHYL perform over 70 shows, release 2 albums, tour Eastern Canada, play CMW and crack the Toronto market with three enormously successful “Party Bus nights” that saw fans from Hamilton packing Toronto’s legendary Horseshoe Tavern.
In 2010, the band has been featured on Explore Music with Alan Cross, Don't Stop Continue charted in the Top 200 in The Earshot Campus Radio Charts. April 17th, Live How You Live played 102.1 the edge - The Steam Whistle Indie Club.
May 13th - Finished 2nd place in the Y108 $20,000 Band Challenge with over 150 bands from across Southern Ontario competing since January
Through touring, writing, recording, and performing regularly, the band has created a great following and continue to push forward in the Canadian Music Scene. Many people are becoming familiar with the vibe that is "Live How You Live".
