The Dears (Aaron Seligman)Royal Canadian
Montreal-based rock band The Dears were named one of the "Ten Artists to Watch" by Rolling Stone last year, and it's easy to see why. The six-piece band, formed by frontman Murray Lightburn, plays ornate orchestral-rock that has drawn comparisons to the Smiths and Belle and Sebastian. They join us on the heels of their new CD, "No Cities Left." Another example of Canada's musical diversity can be found in the work of Kiran Ahluwalia. Born in northern India to Punjabi parents, she was raised in Toronto where she fell in love with ghazals, the sophisticated musical love poems of India she was exposed to by her parents. She joins us with a live performance in advance of a date at Joe's Pub this Friday.
