Our September touring bro will be none other than Neil Leyton, Canadian singer/songwriter/genius. He's played over here a few times backed up by Rich Jones from Amen.

"Producer, singer, songwriter, rock n'roll guitar player & indie label entrepreneur: Neil Leyton is a mainstay in the Canadian music scene. Originally frontman for Toronto's glam godfathers The Conscience Pilate, in 1998 Leyton embarked on a solo career with the release of the critically acclaimed "Secret Avenue" album. His first single and video, "fires of the heart", aired on MuchMusic that Summer. Live, Leyton's unpredictable, candid appearances range from intimate acoustic soires to full blown electrified rock n'roll excess. Leyton's latest album, titled "...from the brighter side of her midnight sun..." extends the boundaries of his songwriting range, both musically as well as lyrically: influences from Shelley to modern day sociologists / psychiatrists Fromm and Gruen. Production-wise, it has everything from the harshest guitar noise (think MC5, International Noise Conspiracy) to the sweetest melodies (from Jeff Buckley's high-registers to latter-day Nick Cave's more understated charms)."

Our Canadian tour bros next year will be The Pariahs

"The Pariahs came together in Kingston in 1989 and moved to Toronto two years later. Then somebody left and John joined. Then somebody else left and Matt joined. The ensuing years have seen them share stages with a veritable whos who of the Canadian music scene (as well as an ever-increasing list of other wasters, luminaries and legends to be) including the likes of The Headstones, The Tragically Hip, Therapy?, Junkhouse, The Deftones, Forgotten Rebels, Elevator, The Sinisters, The Guess Who, Rusty, Teenage Head and The Ramones. YES, THAT'S RIGHT, THE FUCKIN' RAMONES! 1995 saw the release of The Pariahs' debut album Home is Where You Hang Yourself (title cribbed from Mordecai Richler); their sophomore effort Mouthful of Headache was released in January of 2000."
