(Indie Rock/Alternative Rock) Daybreak Gentlemen - The Beechwood Demos - 2013, mp3, 320 kbps

The Toronto based group collectively known as Daybreak Gentlemen were born in the back of a dimly lit pub on a terribly cold & stormy winter night. After copious amounts of alcohol and one cigarette too many, Zack Niven & childhood friend Ryan “Arturo Fizerelli” Fyfe decided it was finally time to have a go of it, and after years of trepidation they would form a band!
In addition to them the line-up would consist of Josh Niven, Ryan Salvatore, and their estranged friend Bingo Pyjama. Bingo, Josh, & Zack had played together for years but never really had the nerve to get any project off the ground. Meanwhile the proverbial brothers Ryan, young and rising stars in their own right, had grown keen for the stage despite never playing in a group of any kind. After weeks of debate the five young men would collectively form under the title “Daybreak Gentlemen” a moniker that would serve their young lust and ambition well. Many a night were spent revelling over a large glass of scotch, a couple of beers, fine young women... and oh yes, making joyous music too!
After two full years together the boys are creating quite the buzz on the Toronto Indie scene. Shows at The Velvet Underground, Silver Dollar, & Infamous Horseshoe Tavern have earned them a reputation as a high energy party band not to be messed with!
Their debut EP gained strong acclaim and the track "In Some Ways" was featured in light rotation on 102.1 The Edge Toronto. With the Feb release of their latest EP the boys hope to continue to ride the waves of momentum!
The goal is to bring the listener nostalgia from events they never actually experienced. To understand Daybreak Gentlemen simply picture scenes from all of your favourite movies in the form of enthusiastic, angular indie music.

The second release from Daybreak Gentlemen - a "mid fidelity" gem.
Over the last eight months as a band we have endeavored to write the “perfect pop song”. Throughout this process we found that the quest to write a seamlessly perfect song left us constantly in a state of “tweaking” & “modifying” riffs, melodies, & structures. Often our writing sessions would end in frustration and malcontent with what had been produced. In trying to create the crystal clear “rocket” single that is modern pop, we found our songs began to lack the feel and flavour that made them exciting to us in the first place.
The Beechwood demos are just as the name implies... they are “demos”. No polish, no shine, just a band working together, playing on emotion & energy.
In the end we resisted the need to spend a lot of money & time on a “radio ready” work. We decided instead to just play.... and enjoy whatever came out.
We hope that you enjoy it too!
