Montreal cinematic rockers October Sky are all grown up and bringing their new, more matured sound to Petit Cafe Campus (57 Prince Arthur E.) on September 21st to celebrate the completion of their new 5 song EP. Produced by Brian Moncarz (Moneeen, The Junction, Silverstein), the EP is the band’s third release since 2006, and the follow-up to their highly celebrated 2008 album, “Hell Isn’t My Home”.
Over the years, October Sky’s diverse and rich musical talents have allowed them to deliver performances of spectacular mood and energy.
“When we perform, the crowd is like our canvas and we like to set the mood and tone for them. We want them to feel great and hear our creations, and interpret them as their own,” says vocalist/guitarist Karl Raymond.
These qualities have led October Sky, not only to be recognized on their local, Canadian music scene, but also towards opportunities of seizing an international crown. In April 2010, the band performed in London, England, representing Canada in the finals of the Global Battle of the Bands. And with that international showcase, the band began to solidify demand overseas, which may result in another Canadian act soon breaking out onto the world stage.
Most recently, October Sky performed at Montreal’s Osheaga Music & Arts Festival at the War Child tent. Video of their acoustic set can be viewed at the following link: http://www.youtube.com/octoberskyofficial
