Background/Composition: This Toronto six-piece boasts several players from the now defunct Jon-Rae And The River. Frontwoman Simone Fornow is no Jon-Rae Fletcher, but she's definitely just as passionate about her music. Grade: 83 Comment: The last time I saw Fornow perform, she looked like she'd just rolled out of bed after a night of painting...

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...

Toronto's One Hundred Dollars — who count four former members of Jon-Rae & The River among their ranks — are a country band for the 21st century. That might sound really weird, but I say it because you'll find a bunch of subject matter that's both kind of wacky and contemporary on their Forest Of Tears debut. Some of the things tackled...

If you remember listening to One Hundred Dollars' 2008 Forest Of Tears debut, you might recall "Tirade Of A Shitty Mom," an extended psychedelic number that stuck out from its mostly classic country sounding siblings. Something seemed off about that tune, since it indicated the band might head off in a different direction at another date.They've...

Fucked Up, One Hundred Dollars Violate All Toronto Public Library's Noise Rules

"It just hit me," vocalist Damian Abraham laughed towards the end of one of Fucked Up's more unusual gigs. "We're playing the fucking library!" And yes, on paper, the thought of Fucked Up and fellow Toronto act One Hundred Dollars sharing an all-ages bill at the Toronto Reference Library is a bit of a weird one. But Friday...
