Download "My Swashbuckling Days are Over" on Bag of Songs!

Tom from Philly music blog Bag of Songs has been kind enough to put up a nice blurb about CI on his site, and he's hosting another of our newbies, "My Swashbuckling Days Are Over", for free download. Stop over, check out the site, and download our tune!

CI Returns!

We played our first live show of 2008 a week ago at Johnny Brenda's, supporting the Photon Band. The week was twice as special since Helen Leicht over at XPN's Local Show has been spinning a track from our forthcoming record! Tune in sometime and look out for "My Swashbuckling Days are Over"!

We're up to our noses in band work, so in the meantime, here's some pics and a video from the show:

Hola, 2008!

Canadians,

I'm really excited about the CI agenda for 2008! Very soon we'll be announcing the release date for our next full length record, recorded with Philly's best producer/nicest person Brian McTear (with the help of engineer extraordinaire Amy Morrissey). We've got not one, but two music videos in the works courtesy of the uber-talented and also supernice Melinda the Martian (more on Melinda a bit later). And we'll be playing a flurry of gigs this year to promote what we feel like is our best record ever (hell, we wanted to call it Led Zepplin III at some point, so we must think it's good).

Our first event of '08 will be a killer one, since we're going to be opening for Philly indie legends The Photon Band at Philly's coolest venue, Johnny Brenda's, on Friday, February 8th. Get your tickets here! Then mark your calendars, hide your daughters, and doublelock the pantry!!!!!!!!

Adieu, 2007! Adieu!

Friends,

2007 has been a great year for Canadian Invasion. We've played some fantastic gigs, meet great new people, spent good times with old pals, and recorded what we believe is the greatest rock album since the first Wham record (hopefully you will feel the same when it comes out early next year).

To close out the year, we played a special gig with pals Slo-Mo at Chaplin's Music Cafe in Spring City. Chaplin's is a wonderful old vaudeville theatre that the current owner has converted into a fabulous music hall. As a treat for all your love and support, here's a clip of four songs from the show, recorded by audience member and CI pal Jason Saltzman:

Last Saturday we had the pleasure of playing a CD release party for our friends Milton & The Devils Party at World Cafe Live in Philly. MDP have just released a great record called "How Wicked We've Become" which they recorded with Brian McTear and Amy Morrissey, the same folks at the helm of the next CI record. Check them out on the internets by clicking here!

Below are some great pics of us from the show taken by photo master Yaron. Enjoy!
