Other:
The majestic beauty of Canada, history, politics, the mad state of the world, and all forms of art that challenge the mind and heart.
Pan Out Now plays what they call "recombinant rock" - an intriguing
mix of male and female vocals, big guitars and cascading piano atop
anthemic, driving riffs.
Picture Evanessence meets QOTSA meets Tool.
"4/4 time and standard tuning are increasingly stagnant forms of today's popular music." says Tim Foley , " The complexities of 21st century life for us are more accurately realized through asymmetry and dissonance, which we apply to both melody and harmony. I think you've got to keep pushing at those boundaries in order to stay relevant."
This refusal to conform is immediately apparent as the voices of Sheri and Foley weave together clear, soaring lines into an energetic disquiet, revealing the craft and honest emotion of the lyrics.
The band will be taking a break from touring in the upcoming months to work on new material and ramp up to fall college and club shows. Monthly local Toronto are shows will still be happening so please keep checking back here for show dates.
Hey fall greetings to you ! I have two new songs , Lone Wolf and Transcend Requiem that I would be honored if you'd give a listen. Best Wishes and have a great week !!!!
Hey guys. How's recording coming along? Life in Europe has been busy as fuck. Miss Canada a wee bit. My guitars are still in Canada & it's been over a month but they are coming soon. Workin hard to make a living here. Let me know how life is. Take care.
You guys are one of our FAVS!!! You were incredible on friday night! thanks again for joining us and sharing the stage. Steph, I went out and bought 5000 packs of those cigars! My skin looks amazing! hahah! Good sales woman you are, and quite pretty too! Whole package!
Hey guys, Hope all is well with you guys & the new member.
Europe has been amazing. Very hard to leave but in order to finalize my citizenship i have no choice. It has been an awesome 36 days although only 3 gigs in that time, i have sold all the cd's i brought. I'm coming back to Canada this wed the 27th & i will relocate to Europe in Sept. That means i have 6 months to gig in Canada when i return. Keep me posted on any openings if it's not a problem. Take care & talk soon.
I was Co-host and live performing guest tonight on the radio on 105.9 FM WOMM "The Radiator". We Spun "Aspirate" over the FM airwaves in greater Burlington VT and I introduced the song.
Hey guys, i leave today for Europe. Just wanted to wish you guys luck with the art, the music & life in general. Take care & thanks again for those last few gigs. Talk soon.
That was a great set at The Velvet Underground. Yes I was there. Swirly cinematic rock, part-prog, part atmospheric and dyanmic energy, a merging of bittersweet souls from different eras. Stephanie is TO's answer to Amy Lee, and Tim is a polished guitarist. Highly entertaining. A spectacle to behold.
Hey guys Ive been listening to Aspirate and must say that I enjoy all of the tracks. Keep up the good work. I saw that in April you'll be playing in Syracuse, can't wait to see that.
