"Army of Daughters" Music Video Now Online!

On Sunday February 19th 2012 we threw a video premiere party at Tequila Bookworm in Toronto for our debut music video, "Army of Daughters" off our first EP "Hope You Are Well".

It was an extremly successful event, and we'd like to thank everyone who came out to celebrate with us. We are very grateful for the talented team who helped to make this video possible including our brilliant director Alvin Campaña, and our affable Make-up artist Glen Daniel.

 

If you like the video, please consider sharing the link on Facebook and Twitter and leaving a comment on YouTube.

Next up for us: tracking drums for our second EP this week, and performing with Wax Manniquin and Old Foes at The Piston on Thursday March 15th.

"Army of Daughters" Video Premiere Party Fast Approaching

To recap the past month, we played a charity sci-fi convention on New Year's Eve and were able to ring in 2012 with the fabulous and self-described "nerds" of Futurecon. Our first official show of 2012 was back at The Horseshoe Tavern, and we has a blast.

Our video for "Army of Daughters" that we shot in December 2011 is now complete, and to celebrate we are going to have a video premiere party, and YOU are invited.

On Sunday February 19th, please join us on the second floor of Tequila Bookworm, 512 Queen St West in Toronto, starting at 3 p.m.

Directed by the Gemini award-winning editor Alvin Campaña, the video was shot over one weekend, and features a series of character transformations created by talented MAC makeup artist Glen Daniel.

In addition, there will be music video screenings featuring the Toronto-based band The Ruby Spirit and the Hamilton-based Wax Mannequin along with the vinyl spinning grooves of Alex P., with his with his blend of rockabilly, surf, glam and electro, and our own Alex Leger with an oldies and pop set.

And its FREE!

We were extremely fortunate to have a talented team behind us - thank you Alvin and Glen for your professionalism and dedication to your craft, and for helping us to create what we think is a fantastic music video.

We can't wait to share it will you all in person on the 19th.

See you there!

*Videos will begin screening at 4:30 p.m.*

This Holiday Season We've Been Naughty.....

by not updating our site of recent goings-on!

In early December we shot our very first music video for "Army of Daughters" off of our debut EP Hope You Are Well. We had the help of an extreamly talented, hard working group, and we're very excited to share the final product. Expect the video to be released on-line in January 2012, and check back for information about a video release party happening in Toronto soon. (Date and location TBA!)

Here's a sneak peek of Nikki's makeup for the video.

This New Year's Eve we are thrilled to be playing the Futurecon 2011 New Year’s Eve Gala at The Holiday Inn in Markham. Futurecon is an annual sci-fi convention with proceeds going to Epilepsy Toronto. This is the first time any members of the band have been to a sci-fi convention, let alone played at one. It's not often we can say we played to a Wookie (we hope there's a Wookie, at the very least an Ewok).

And our first official 2012 show will be at The Horseshoe Tavern on Janaury 12th. We're on stage at 8:40 PM sharp, $5 at the door.

Happy Holidays to you all, and here's to a kick ass new year!

Much Love,

The JLC
