Forester

In July of 2011, Forester self-released their first EP, 'The Prison Leader' both digitally and in physical CD format. Soon after, they were featured in a two-page interview spread in Canadian magazine Georgie (http://heygeorgie.com), and received airplay on local radio shows for their single 'The Witness.' Shortly thereafter, the band shot a music video with Vancouver filmmaker Matthew J. Barrett of Dead City Pictures (http://deadcitypictures.com) for their track, 'Oxygen'.  After nearly a year of playing local shows together, the band added Keenan Kirk on piano to assist in expanding their sound. Since then, the band has self-recorded and digitally released two more singles 'Cigarettes' and 'Horns' in January and March of 2013, respectively. Both tracks have been very well-received; positively affecting ticket sale numbers, and giving the band tremendous momentum.  Raved as 'Melodic Thinking Man's Rock' by GigCity (an online news and entertainment zine), Forester has received much praise through various music blogs, publications, reviews and interviews. They have performed live on Balcony TV (http://www.balconytv.com/), as well as several outdoor music festivals, including Boonstock 2013 (http://boonstock.ca) and Shake the Lake 2013 (http://shakethelake.ca).  Forester is back in the studio recording their much-anticipated follow-up EP to The Prison Leader, which is expected to be released in Summer 2014.  Let's get weird.
