In today's world of interchangeable bands with copy-cat styles, people are on the lookout for fresh and original music. They want songs with refrains that will echo in the mind, lyrics that aren't taken from a teenager's diary, and a vocalist with a distinct sound that becomes the band's signature. In the past that was commonplace, but recently, formula has surpassed creativity. The prolific words of Sam Cooke declared "a change is gonna come." It's time for that change, and littleSUNDAY is at the forefront.
The Toronto area quartet's lead vocals and rhythm guitar are mastered by front man Rick Farrell. The rest of the band is comprised of JP handling lead guitar duties as well as backing vocals, Mario Stamegna on bass and backing vocals, and Eric Bonatti adding the drums and percussion to the mix. littleSUNDAY formed during the early part of the decade in a twist of fate that would rival what any fiction writer could create. By chance, Rick attended the show of a band that JP, Mario, and Eric were involved in, and the lead singer was in absentia. Rather than cancel the appearance, the band requested someone to come on stage and help out, and Rick was the one that answered the call. The rest, as they say, is history.

New EP, "Let it All Out" Coming Soon!
------------------------------------
littleSUNDAY has been spending a lot of time in the studio lately, and there's
a very good reason: "Let it All Out" - that's the name of their upcoming indie
release EP! In the wake of a successful year, the boys have decided to release
a new project. This time there is no pressure or a sense of urgency to meet
deadlines. What's in the works, is pure rock and roll, smoldering with passion!
The members of the band have been trekking down to Mastermind Studios in
Hamilton where, as recent winners of the 2008 Roger's Spring Music Festival,
they have been awarded a free recording package. When asked about the progress
of the new project, bassist Mario commented: "It's all good! We love writing
new material, and this one promises to be a future fan favorite!"
Spirits are high and the adrenaline is indeed flowing. I had the
opportunity to get a sneak listen on the 'work in progress', and let me tell
you: they are definitely letting it all out for this one!! We wish the boys
good luck and look forward to the release. So far there are no immediate plans
for a release date!
The Region Will Rock on Nov.21st
NOV 21st IN NEWMARKET:

The 2nd Annual Ontario Independent Music Awards will be held on October 16 at the Phoenix Concert Theatre in Toronto. The brainchild of Martin Brown, founder and ex-producer of the Toronto Independent Music Awards, the show is a celebration of the wonderfully varied and talented Ontario music scene.
Starting small with a grassroots feel, and staying true to its mandate - the OIMAs celebrate this province's music scene and provide exposure and recognition to artists in 20 music genres.
This year, littleSUNDAY is nominated for Best Alternative Rock Band of the Year!
Accompanying the award ceremonies, will include performances from some of the winners of the 2007 inaugural Ontario Independent Music Awards.
It's free to everyone, and the show gets under way at around 7pm. So what
better way to shake the turkey blues, than to come down to the Phoenix on a thursday night to celebrate the 2nd Annual OIMA's!!!!!
See you there!

All in all this is a great mix of songs that truly demonstrates the artistic ability, and multi-genre crossbreeding creativity of the band.
