Lots a gwon with THE NEW DEAL. The dudes are blowing up stages with
their inspirational live breakbeat house vibes all over North America,
touring with the likes of Herbie Hancock, Bullfrog, and headlining nuff
festivals and shows. Hot off the heels of their debut self titled album
they will be releasing a new series of live show recordings culled from
their on-road adventures. The first installment entitled 'This.Is.Live' is
actually a reissue of their first-ever recorded live performance as The New
Deal here in Toronto in 1999. Check for it on their very own Sound+Light
Records imprint. We will be catching up with them tonight to talk about
future plans for the band, new albums, tours, and what their favourite
colours are. If you've never seen them live, lucky for you they'll be
playing 2 shows if you're in the Toronto area on Thursday June 13 and Friday
June 14 at the Opera House (791 Queen St. East, just east of Broadview). For
