-- PHILL HOOD --
Phill is an award-winning singer/songwriter and performer from St. Johns, Newfoundland. Since moving to Toronto in 2003, he has been blessed to have shared the stage with many of the citys most talented musicians! Having grown up in rugged Newfoundland, Phill was exposed to Celtic music and culture at a very early age, but did not truly embrace it until he left his homeland to study music in Toronto and started to miss the sounds that reminded him most of home. Having honed his craft in many a dark pub, Phill quickly found himself in a network of similar minded musicians as he began to craft a sound deep rooted classic rock, power pop, with subtle maritime and Celtic roots.
With the recent formation of a full 5 piece band, Phill Hood and the Exclamation or Phill Hood!, 2017 will mark the beginning of a new era for Phill with his upcoming release of Travel, his debut album.
-- NICOLAS PATTERSON --
Born in Montreal, Nicolas Patterson was raised in an environment where English and French would quite often merge into one language.
Over the past three years, the singer/songwriter has twice toured overseas in Europe and played over a hundred shows in Quebec, Ontario and across the borders in California and New York. Time, hard work and perseverance have provided the artist with opportunities to share stages with Bobby Bazini, Jonathan Roy, Kim Churchill and many more.
On February 10 2017, Nicolas debut Ep was released. With this album, the artist embraces light and bright pop flavours of his own, which are sometimes intertwined with his undeniable folk influences. While telling stories of changes and escapes, Everything Is Changing is also an invitation to stay.
