Dearly Beloved — You Are The Jaguar

Dearly Beloved are the new project from Rob Higgins (ex-Change Of Heart, Rocket Science and Tristan Psionic) featuring fellow Can-rocker (and ex-Danko Jones drummer) Damon Richardson on guitar. The band combine the grit of old-school punk, the guitars of the new rock revival and a touch of The Velvet Underground, rounded out by a pair of sickly-...

Rain Can't Wash Edgefest Away

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Edgefest. The festival has gone through many permutations over the years, but in the end, it still serves as a great way of bringing music to the masses. I don't visit the Amphitheatre often, so every time I come back it takes a little while to get used to the lay of the land. After wandering by the...

Dearly Beloved @ NXNE 2006

Hometown: Toronto, ON Background/Composition: Rob Higgins leads melodic band of skilled rejects into legs apart, head banging, carefully crafted rock 'n' roll show. Grade: 90 Comment: Dearly Beloved were gathered in front of the crowd this night to rock and fucking roll, and nothing else. With the help of a female...

Dearly Beloved @ CMW 2006

Hometown: Toronto, ON Background/Composition: Fronted by ex-Change Of Heart Rob Higgins, this is punkish, shouty pop noir with a binary of female backup vocalists and... what's this? Recently departed Danko Jones drummer Damon Richardson, wielding an axe. Grade: 79 Comment: This band woefully exposes my scenester ignorance. I...

Doctor — High Is As High Gets

While Doctor brings together two experienced musicians, The Watchmen’s Danny Greaves and Change Of Heart/The Royals’ Rob Higgins, the duo’s first effort falls far short of exciting. For Greaves to escape The Watchmen’s grip he would have to create something vastly different than the Can-Rock he’s known for. His vocals are so distinct and so...

Niva Chow has been in Sticky Rice and worked with Revolver films. Damon Richardson's worked with Danko Jones and Change Of Heart, and Gavin MaGuire's...

Dearly Beloved's Rob Higgins Wants to Be Your Repo Man

Dearly Beloved's Rob Higgins just might be the world's nicest repo man. He doesn't give a crap about your unpaid furniture from IKEA, and sometimes he doesn't even care about his own. "We're recording some new songs today," says Higgins over the phone from his cozy Toronto pad. "I've actually turned my living room into a dub...

Dearly Beloved's Music Evolves From Sad Situation

Toronto music scene institution Rob Higgins has created a new band in Dearly Beloved and a boisterous debut called You Are The Jaguar. Higgins' band name couldn't be more appropriate.
