Charlemagne

This is a band out of Canada and I can only say that they rock. I've known little about them for almost 2 years now and wish I knew more. It's a bunch of young guys just out of high school writing interesting indie rock with mature lyrics, good changes, memorable melodies, and apparently great live shows. Unfortunately all they have is a Myspace page so it's hard for those of you unfamiliar with them to really catch up of their total body of work but please do visit the page and listen to the tracks. My favorite there is "Oh The Boss Is Coming" followed closely by "The Ballad of Hugo..."

It seems they are gathering a following in their haven up there among our neighbors to the north. I think they have what it takes to get big. All they need is an opening spot on a tour with say BRMC, CYHSY, or some other acronymic band.
