“In the land of indie rock, there are very few bands that can evoke as much emotion as N.E.B……with haunting melodies and deep lyrics, mixed with eclectic instrumentation…..they set them selves apart from everything in the scene.” – Kevin Jardine – Uplift Productions
“I surely can say that they have their own unique sound. Every song is raw, emotion filled with powerful melodies and touching vocals. Where were they all this time? Well hidden I guess. These guys are awesome!” -René Garcia (The Brains) -producer

It was the summer of 2006 when three musicians who had known each other for years – Ian (vocals), Erik (trumpet) and Ben (bass) – were sitting in a half empty bistro, enjoying a glass of whatever was available at the time, when they had a brilliant idea.
Having played together before (since 2001, to be exact), just under a different band name, and having received great feedback (such as placing 4th out of 150 musicians who played the first ever Emergenza festival), the friends decided to morph themselves into North East Bistro.
As new members came and went; as arrangement were made, revisited and sometimes scrapped; as a deadline for the first NEB record was pushed back from the spring of 2008 to the fall of that year – Sharing Our Darkest Moments…A Montreal Native Story was finally released on November 11th.
Now, celebrating 10 years of their musical partnership, North East Bistro is ready to unveil its latest creation, Committed, which will feature unique NEB touches such as trumpet, trombone and piano. Set to come out on July 12th, NEB is ready to prove the band is still alive and very much kicking, and is committed to its music until death do them part.
