The Garrison, Sneaky Dee's and the High Park playground.

3. What is different about Toronto's music scene than other cities you've played in?

Toronto's music scene is more diverse than other cities we've played in. It's hard to define music culture in toronto because it's influenced by so many different styles.

4. What do you think is Toronto's hidden gem?

Toronto is a great city to explore because of it's massive-ness and it's multiculturalism.  Lots of anything to see and have.  Greek town (the danforth) is pretty rocking for spanakopita.  There's also a wicked candy shop there.  So the hidden gem is everything, explore with all possible utensils!

5. What is the worst thing about Toronto?

Sometimes it's stinky and gives you headaches.

6. Which Canadian Music Week acts are you keen to check out?

Donlands And Mortimer, Young Rival, Zeus and Maylee & PEGWEE POWER!!!
