NEWS: Pigeon Row presents a free compilation!
There has never been any shortage of musical talent coming out of Halifax, NS. Over the past few years though, a new generation of artists has emerged whose works have rivalled even the most fabled of the city's output. Delivering a steady stream of free songs, EPs, and LPs through their Bandcamp sites, the acts are diverse, artistically challenging, and remarkably accomplished. Their recordings are completed in basements, studios, and bedrooms. Their release shows take place in a bar with a quasi-functional sound system and perhaps the country's greatest doorman, Jim.
We've decided to compile our favorite songs from the wealth of material that has been released over the last year or so. Some are acts we already work with, others we're just fans of. It's not an overview of everything that is going on in Halifax right now, but just a very specific scene within it. You can grab the whole thing below. We hope you enjoy it!
