Details

Though they were formed a little over 18 months ago Toronto’s Weaves have already established themselves as one of the most stridently individual acts to emerge from that city's fertile and multifaceted DIY music scene. 

Led by the collaborative efforts of vocalist Jasmyn Burke and guitarist Morgan Waters, the band have built a devoted audience while capturing the attention of the international media with a brand of ebullient, art-damaged pop music as difficult to categorize as it is impossible to ignore. 

Their self-titled EP, released on Buzz Records and produced by Dave Newfeld (Broken Social Scene, Super Furry Animals) and Leon Taheny (Owen Pallett, Fucked Up), garnered praise from Noisey, Rookie and Spin among others and earned them a “band to watch” tag from Rolling Stone, while their live performances saw them marked as one of the “must see” acts of CMJ 2014 by The Guardian and the NME.

The band have showed no signs of slowing down in 2015, releasing the one off single “Shithole” in January which Entertainment Weekly likened to “the Pixies at their proto-grunge best covering a Burger Records stoner-pop song,” and lining up a summer full of shows highlighted by their first European tour which will see them play Glastonbury as well as dates with Dan Deacon, Pissed Jean & Hinds, and an appearance at the inaugural edition of the Toronto mega-festival Way Home.
