Event Description


Tigercity w/ Wave Machines on March 9

EMBRACE PRESENTS

TIGERCITY
With Guests Wave Machines
Tuesday, March 9, 2010 – Wrongbar
1279 Queen Street West, Toronto

“Brooklyn’s ’80s and Bee Gees/Hall & Oates-inflected lite-rock quartet.”
- Stereogum

Embrace is pleased to announce Tigercity with guests Wave Machines will perform at Wrongbar on Tuesday, March 9, 2010.

Tigercity was formed in Northampton, MA in the fall of 2004. By January 2005, Tigercity had themselves a DIY, bedroom electronics-style demo. That following summer found the band in-studio with long time friend/engineer-producer Al Carlson. In two months, TCITY + AL molded the process-heavy demo tracks into what became the Tigercity EP (Forge Records). Time Card appeared on the VICE Magazine CD/DVD Vol. 1 Sampler in February, 2006. Now living in Brooklyn, Tigercity combines guitar-driven rock and electronic pop with hints of Roxy Music, Talking Heads, The Police, and Prince. Successful nights at The Annex, Club Midway, The Knitting Factory, The Middle East, Lit Lounge, and North Six have the band making waves from Jersey to Manhattan, Boston and Brooklyn. Shows with Jamie Lidell, M.I.A, Serena Maneesh, Jimmy Edgar, Mobius Band, DieDieDie, and Oxford Collapse have their fan base growing rapidly since their Western Massachusetts transplant.

Wave Machines are an alternative rock band formed in Liverpool in 2007. The band released two singles, The Greatest Escape We Ever Made and I Go I Go I Go, with Chess Club Records before signing with Neapolitan Music Limited in 2008. Two further singles, Keep The Lights On and a re-recorded version of I Go I Go I Go, have since been released, followed in June 2009 by the band’s first album, Wave If You’re Really There. The album was reviewed favourably by NME. The group have performed on BBC 6 Music on shows presented by George Lamb and Marc Riley.
