The Cliks Hook Up With The Cult For Canadian Dates

Toronto rockers The Cliks, who opened for The Cult on their American tour in November, will do the same in Canada this spring.
The Cliks have attracted a lot of attention since the release of their 2007 sophomore disc, Snakehouse, and were part of last summer's True Colors tour with Cyndi Lauper, Erasure, Debbie Harry, The Dresden Dolls, The Gossip and Margaret Cho. It appears things are about to get even busier.
Torontonians can catch The Cliks during Canadian Music Week, where they'll play the eighth annual Canadian Independent Music Awards in the Canadian Room at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel along with The New Pornographers, Tokyo Police Club, Young Galaxy, Attack In Black, The Besnard Lakes and The Lowest Of The Low. The Cliks' website has been nominated for favourite artist/band website.
CMW won't be The Cliks' only music showcase in March. They'll play Austin, Texas' South By Southwest Music Festival for the second time on March 13.
If that's not busy enough for you, The Cliks have been nominated for best music artist at the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation's 19th annual GLAAD Media Awards. Bloc Party, Melissa Etheridge, Patrick Wolf and fellow Canadian Rufus Wainwright have also been nominated. GLAAD was founded in 1985 and works to eliminate homophobia and discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation through fair media representation. The awards show takes place on March 17 in New York City.
