I WON’T FALL DOWN from SUNRISE and GOOD PEOPLE on Vimeo.
You never know who you’re going to meet or what new bands you’re going to discover when you take part in Canadian Music Week.
Although they were not on site this year, I was still happy to discover Sunrise and Good People, an emerging Montreal-based psych-rock or “tribal band. Formed by lifelong friends, Eric Bolduc and Xavier Auclair they have seen the world from Europe to East Africa, as well as the Himalayas. Perhaps they made some powerful connections whilst in the mountains because they were recently granted an audience with the Dalai Lama during a public talk in Ottawa a few years ago, and had the honour of playing the beautiful Tibet-based music video for his Holiness along with 7,000 other people.
The truly tribal ‘Closer To The Flame’ was shot in Tahiti last month. Take a look at what a wonderful life we could have if the constraints of clothing had not existed! ;) #NoPants
From what I’ve been told, the band is being closely watched by some high-level industry heads, and should be one to watch for in coming months!
