THE CITY HARMONIC

The City Harmonic is a Hamilton, ON worship band that fuses nostalgic hymns with brit-rock, mixed with the feeling of singing at a campfire. The group is comprised of Elias Dummer (vocalist/songwriter and pianist), Eric Fusilier (bassist), Aaron Powell (guitarist), and Josh Vanderlaan (drummer) and the band’s initial release, “Introducing The City Harmonic” has been an explosive hit, continuing to climb the charts and mesmerize fans.

On September 3, Juno Award-winning band The City Harmonic revealed its eagerly anticipated full-length sophomore release, HEART, a full-circle progression of its critically acclaimed debut, I Have A Dream (It Feels Like Home). This album—underscored by the cinematic and communal aesthetic so prominent in all The City Harmonic’s music—shifts from the dream of what could and should be to the complexities of how fragile, broken humans follow the true humanity of Christ’s example in the world.

SHAD

Shad is a critically-acclaimed MC, regarded for his humour, honesty, and intelligence. His fan base graciously received his first two albums, and his third LP, TSOL, continued to pique new levels of international interest.

Born in Kenya to Rwandan parents and relocated to Canada shortly after, Shad has nurtured a broad range of interests and experiences since his formative years, including, of course, a passion for music. After high-school Shad put his nose to the grindstone and wrote his first songs while studying business at Wilfrid Laurier University where he later graduated with a Bachelor's degree. Shad's first record When This Is Over was released in July 2005, and was characterized by overt introspection and social awareness.

When 2007's The Old Prince was released on Black Box Recordings, critics immediately incorporated Shad into the dialogue among the most well-regarded MCs in North America. His third album, TSOL, continued his thoughtful approach which traverses soulful arrangements with sharp, progressive lyrics. Since its release on Black Box/Decon in 2010, TSOL was named a shortlist nominee for the Polaris Music Prize - Shad's second consecutive nomination - and won the 2011 Juno Award for Rap Recording of the Year.

Between tours and stints in the studio, Shad also completed a Master's degree in Liberal Studies at Simon Fraser University, graduating with an M.A. in 2011. With a supportive fan base growing around the globe, Shad has been hard at work on his 4th album, hoping to continue to inspire hope and joy while exploring the depths of his wide-ranging ideas and experiences.
