Remedy CD "The Tyranny of the Smug" gets rave reviews

Dec. 20, 2010 - PRLog -- REMEDY

Remedy is a funk rock trio out of Halifax, Nova Scotia.  Formed in 2008, members included Steve Harley (singer/guitarist), James Bond (bass) and Gil Roy (drums).  

Remedy released their debut album, "Paleofidelity", in the spring of 2009.  Their first single, "Up from the Bottom" was played on at least 50 Canadian commercial and college radio stations from coast to coast and select stations in the U.S. (New York's Indie Revolution Radio, and L.A.'s Indie104).  Four months later, the band had its second nationwide radio single, "Rude Reaction" released.  An East Coast Countdown producer's pick became one of only 2 Canadian tracks featured on RadioRnR's latest CD compilation "New Faces, New Music", available worldwide digitally and in its physical format at Borders Books and Music in Western U.S  

The video for "Up from the Bottom" was shot in November '09, with multi award winning director Aram Kouyoumdjian, Atlantic Film Festival's  Best Cinematographer, Chris Ball and editor Jesse Harley, who also was recently awarded a 2010 Atlantic Film Festival Award for "Best Short", which he wrote, directed, edited and co-produced.   This video is now available for your viewing pleasure.  

Remedy's second full length CD, "The Tyranny of the Smug" was released digitally on September 28, 2010.  The lead single from this CD, “I Will Come To You” is like a wolf hunting its prey.  It is a dark, yet upbeat cocky rock song which represents the art of the chase.  With a great drum intro inviting the guitar’s deep notes that signifies that chase.  The vocals are sultry and mischievous which keeps with the overall feel of this song.  
Remedy has recently completed the taping of their third appearance on Q104’s “Route 104” which aired on October 3, 2010, followed by BT taping 2 weeks later.  

In 2011, Remedy plans another Canadian radio single release for "I Will Come to you", a video release, an Atlantic regional tour, a U.S. College release (via Tinderbox....if enough funds available) and a return to the band's own studio (Cresthill) to begin work on their third  album.  

Remedy has played Applepalooze, Scallopalooza, Warf-Rat Harley Davidson Festival, Natal Day Festival, was invited but couldn’t attend SXSW and  Breakfast Television (twice).
