"This tight Canadian band channels some licks and grooves from the collections of Prince and Stevie Wonder and then slathers them in a glaze of smoldering Modern Rock. If Maroon 5 can be played on radio every 15 minutes, Vanderpark should be on every 10." CityBeat Magazine Cincinnati, OH - 09/26/2007
In the wake of their sophomore LP All Your Hands, Vanderpark is back with their latest effort Cherish Yesterday. Musically diverse and lyrically charged, Cherish Yesterday is jam packed with the newest sounds from the Toronto-based rockers. In contrast to their earlier years, dominated by rigorous touring, this amazing live quartet has grown studio savvy, retooling and refocusing on the music industry in the making of this LP.
Boasting all the tricks in the Vanderpark bag, Cherish Yesterday is lush in musical texture as well as lyrical content. Heavy in themes of loss, regret, belonging and the things we think but don't say out loud, Cherish Yesterday is a look back to a time of chaos. Vanderpark has put it all on the line and plays it honestly and whole-heartedly, while offering a conscious and introspective outlook inspired by an era of struggle and growth.
Wielding their two distinctive voices, frontman Dave and string-slinger Marcus belt soaring harmonies, tightly woven around fist-pumping grooves courtesy of Hanaya and Gabe. Vanderpark's live performances have captivated audiences all over Central and Eastern Canada and the North Eastern United States. Relix Magazine has deemed them "A band on the verge", and in 2006 alone they performed over 100 headlining shows, thrilling audiences abroad. Keep a look out because Vanderpark will be rocking in a city near you.
Kind words about Vanderpark's music...
"There is an undeniable dynamic that exists between its members making a Vanderpark show easy and refreshing. Their music is intelligent, accessible and it rocks." American Roots Live Review 74 - 09/26/07
"By combining a staunch dedication to strong, clever musicianship with grasping hooks, tasteful improvisation and three-part harmonies, Vanderpark's catchy, aggressive pop is strong, confident and exhaustingly contagious" Relix Magazine, Nov/Dec 2006
"All Your Hands" is a melodic marvel; thematically mature, gloriously choreographed and rambunctiously funky." The View Magazine, Hamilton, ON
