About Conrad

Initially formed in 2001, we released our self-titled debut in 2002. The disc got some decent reviews and was compared to the likes of Pernice Brothers, Galaxie 500, Elliot Smith, etc ... you get the picture. Two successful tours of Western Canada followed. Our sophomore long player 'Never would have guessed we were all blessed' was released July 4, 2006 and included an animated video for 'Airstrike'. Critical comparions to the Shins, Beach Boys and Rogue Wave abounded. Two more Western Canadian tours followed. 5 tunes from the disc were licensed for the 2007 season of CTV's series 'Whistler'. The video got some attention from MuchMusic's 'The Wedge' and toured the world with the Independent Music Video Festival (IMVF). The disc was also picked as Best in Vancouver by The Georgia Straight.

Conrad was selected for Georgia Straight's Best in Van issue, September 21, 2006

Read the Straight interview:Best in Van

The 'official' release of the new disc was July 4th and the Vancouver Release Party was July 8th at The Railway Part of the success of this release is due to the animated video single 'Airstrike'. The video has already been seen by audiences across Canada as a result of MUCH MUSIC's The Wedge playing it in late May. The Wedge is an hour of the most unique, strange and thoughtful music videos from bands who actually have something to say. As well, IMVF screenings across North America (and in Tel Aviv!) from June through to October 2006 are definitely giving an added boost. Visit imvf.com for more details.

Video Screening

July 4, 2006: Vancouver IMVF screening of video single at The Havana on Commercial Drive.

CD Release Party

July 8, 2006: VANCOUVER RELEASE PARTY at The Railway Club 579 Seymour Street. The animated video single 'Airstrike' will be shown at the gig too!
