Green Go @ NXNE 2009

By Jessica Lewis (CHARTattack) June 19, 2009 1:58 pm

Background/ Composition: This Guelph, Ont. band have been taking the indie Canadian scene by storm with their infectious, playful pop rock beats. Their debut album, Borders, was recently released. Grade: 89 Comment: The band had the 1 a.m. slot on a Thursday, but they still had a decent crowd of completely ridiculous fans with even more...

Green Go — Borders

By Jessica Lewis (CHARTattack) May 21, 2009 10:20 am

The debut album from Guelph, Ont. party animals Green Go is a healthy addition to the evolving dance rock scene across Canada. The tunes on Borders will sound familiar to anyone who's heard Shout Out Out Out Out, Datarock, Woodhands or CSS, but that familiarity will in no way stop your white-as-can-be dance moves (probably in your room). New...

Sloan Cameo With Bicycles On Stage

By Scott Bryson (CHARTattack) November 10, 2008 11:09 am

It's safe to say that after 30 years, any statute of limitations on parodying monumental events in rock history has expired. Martin Scorsese's The Last Waltz was released to the public in 1978. The documentary was a record of The Band's (original lineup) farewell concert at San Francisco's Winterland Ballroom. The Can-Am rockers were joined on...

Green Go @ NXNE 2008

By Evan Dickson (CHARTattack) June 14, 2008 2:30 pm

BACKGROUND/COMPOSITION: After a mellow opening from Jason Bajada the four Green Go kids (number five, Mark Andrade was on honeymoon at the Grand Canyon) jerked the hand break into a sharp left turn, sending the night down a new road of pumped-up electro party jams. Grade: 78 Comment:Getting a transient 10 o'clock crowd to shake...

Song Of The Day: Braids' "Lemonade" (Green Go Remix)

By CHARTattack Staff December 8, 2010 11:29 am

Guelph, Ont.'s Green Go have remixed Calgarians Braids' "Lemonade," from their upcoming Native Speaker album. The electro quintet have kept the swirly, trippy background sounds of the original track and added synthesizers and a beat that would fit nicely on one of their own records. One would think two styles as disparate as Green Go's and Braids...

Green Go @ CMW 2010

By Scott Bryson (CHARTattack) March 12, 2010 1:11 pm

Background/Composition: It's always a party when these five Guelph, Ont. residents hit the stage. If anything will make Toronto concert-goers move their feet, it'll be Green Go's earnest and energetic mix of guitar rock and synth-heavy dance music. They suggest audience members bring a change of clothes. Grade: 79 Comment: Green Go didn't haul...

CMW 2010 Hot Acts: Green Go

By Erik Leijon (CHARTattack) March 9, 2010 4:50 pm

Stiff upper lip, down and out bands of Canada. At the beginning of 2009, Guelph, Ont. dance-electro-rocking party impresarios Green Go had a finished album, but didn't have anywhere to release it. Feeling that the end may have been nigh, they decided to release it themselves anyway, but not before attracting the attention of a label and...
