Formed in 1999 as a one-man band in Toronto, since relocated to Montreal and now available in solo, duo and Fully Loaded Casio Rock Band formations. We play catchy tunes and entertain the people... it’s as simple as that.
It was good to see you guys in Toronto this weekend. Great show. Next time you'll have to come by the studio and "lay down some PHAT BEATS!" Jay fan-4-life Sadlowski
One word: entertainment. That was a great set at The Drake. A charming mishmash of electro, pop rock, and New Wave, unleashed as a feverish dance-fueled party. Juxtaposing contrasting styles in both their music and image, the band flaunts a Euro-kitsch appeal where Kraftwerk-meets-Ladytron, irresistible energy and synth-pop glitz that will get you shaking before you know it. Clearly the star is Malcolm Fraser, a cross between Jarvis Cocker and David Bowie, theatrical posturing sufficiently lighting a fire on stage. A hyper-sonic racket with machine-like precision, after the last note, you still can’t wipe the smile off your face.
