Scene Trek
 
Picture

Toronto based art rockers The Darcys were featured as a Video of the Week not too long ago on Scene Trek, and recently they put out an album titled AJA, an interpretation of Steely Dan's classic. Now we're happy to see them making their way throughout the rock venues of North America on a tour in support of their s/t October release.  And with tourmates Bombay Bicycle Club and Lucy Rose, it's no wonder their shows have been selling out like mad crazy (including a surreal basement show in Calgary)! 

One of the many sold-out performances will be at the 9:30 Club in DC on Wednesday March 7- but they want to make sure you that you are there! That's right, courtesy of Girlie Action, we've got a couple passes to give out to one lucky winner.  All you have to do is email us by Tuesday March 6 at noon, and let us know what song you'd like to hear the Darcys play and why. (Please include your first and last name for guestlist purposes.)

In the meantime, check out their latest video for the track "Josie" below.  

 
 
(by Dawn Reed) Toronto's art rock band The Darcys prepare us for the ultimate call to arms in this emaculate sci-fi video for the infectious track "Don't Bleed Me" off their debut S/T release (out Oct.'11.) Award winning SFX director Michael Portoghese packs an insane end of Earth story into a mere 3 minutes of firey skies and last goodbyes, and reminds us to update our passports before the mothership takes off to another world. I'd be a grumpy gus too if I didn't get to fly in one of those bad ass spacecrafts!     

The Darcy's are currently on tour throughout Canada and the US for the next couple months, so be sure to check out their album before catching them in your hometown.  Click here for dates/venues
