Here is a little about the funky, rockin’, R&B duo…

Scarborough-based The Carps thrive on ingenuity with an attractive blend of rock, funk, electronic and hip-hop. Wielding a disheveled bass, a wonky synthesizer, and hard-hitting drums, the duo steer raw emotion into a palatable and progressive direction while never leaving their mindless self-indulgent Punk Rock days far behind. The Carps recently released their sophomore EP titled “Waves and Shambles”.

Have a listen…

Toronto Unplugged will randomly preview the line-up all week….we’re just starting with our favorite. And yes, they spell their name with a ‘U’…you’re goddamn right.

City and Colour is the solo project of Dallas Green, the dulcet voice of Platinum and Juno award winning Alexisonfire. Consistently selling out every venue across Canada and performing around the world (including legendary festivals such as Soundwave, Reading, Leeds, V-Fest) City and Colour’s debut album “Sometimes” achieved Platinum certification in 2006 and recent release “Bring Me Your Love” has already achieved Gold certification. City and Colour won the MuchMusic People’s Choice Favourite Canadian Artist award in 2006, and performed live on the 2007 JUNOS, (Canada’s Grammys), taking home the award for Alternative Album of The Year.
