   About The Eatons

Raised in the expanse of strip malls and twenty-four hour coffee shops that make up the suburbs of east Toronto, The Eatons are four neighbourhood boys who play passionate rock music as a palliative for the boredom of suburban living. Comprised of Boris Chan (vocals), Sebastian Franks (guitar), Jacky Siu (bass) and Nick Ferguson (drums), The Eatons' unique brand of guitar pop evokes the best of British rock (Bloc Party, Arctic Monkeys, Radiohead) and Canadian indie-pop (New Pornographers, Broken Social Scene).

In 2008, the Eatons recorded and released the Firestarter EP to outstanding reviews. They celebrated their release with a rare suburban rock party in the heart of Scarborough at 54east studios. "Give Me Something To Go On", off the Firestarter EP, has been included in various podcasts (such as the blogTO.com podcast) and was also featured in the Two Way Monologues Mixtape Vol. 1 compilation CD.

Since the Firestarter EP was released, the Eatons have trekked around Ontario, playing shows in Barrie, Milton, Whitby, Oshawa, just to name a few as well as their hometown Toronto, where they played to hundreds of people at the packed New Era flagship store at Nuit Blanche 2008. The Eatons have begun work on their upcoming EP which will be released in late 2009.

Here are some reviews on the Firestarter EP:

"Guitar pop with a creative edge backed with superb vocals from Boris Chan… this is great pop music." — awmusic.ca

"A band that knows exactly who they are and how they want to sound.... a punk-tinged pop band with an ear for hooks, and they succeed at this beyond any shadow of a doubt." — i(heart)music

"Just play it over and over and over again." — It's Not The Band I Hate, It's Their Fans
