With acclaim already gathered from Music Remedy Colossal Pop, Examiner.com, Hollywood Jesus, IndieVisionMusic.com, Soul-Audio and many others, here are just a few recent quotes: “Introducing The City Harmonic is a great addition to the entire worship genre, rivaling Passion and Hillsong in influence and potential.” – Worship Leader Magazine “If you like Coldplay, you will dig The City Harmonic’s take on worship music and their six-song EP debut, Introducing The City Harmonic… With fist-pumping raucous tracks and soaring string-tinged anthems, the EP is a soundtrack for those seeking a greater kingdom hope and unity.” – United Methodist Reporter “Occasionally, I hear new music and get a rush of blood to the head as what is coming out of the speakers thrills me and fills me with hope...” – Cross Rhythms “This is the best new worship band I’ve heard since Delirious?… This album completely rocks…This is a nearly perfect worship album and is great for fans of Coldplay, U2, Delirious?.” “…there is so much to love, so much to hear, such brilliant music and amazingly sung lyrics. You really need to check it out for yourself to fully appreciate its stunningness.” “This album completely rocks and is loaded with songs you can proudly share with your friends and family. The themes of this album are trusting God, loving Him and loving others as He loved us.” – Amazon.com (5-Star review) The City Harmonic is about “getting people in on the act—hearts pounding and feet moving.” Garnering comparisons to Coldplay, Aqualung, Arcade Fire, the band’s self-produced, six-song EP, Introducing The City Harmonic, is a nostalgic Brit-pop meets campfire sing-along mix that features raucous, gang vocals along with agile, soaring anthems crafted to include the listener. The band, consisting of front man Elias Dummer, bassist Eric Fusilier, guitarist Aaron Powell and drummer Josh Vanderlaan, isn’t as interested in finding fans as they are looking for participants in the journey. With the band’s name partly derived from the sense that in communal worship we catch a fleeting glimpse of the world that we pine for, Introducing The City Harmonic is just a taste of what’s to come from this creative Canadian foursome. The release of the band’s full-length album will be announced soon, and it will continue the journey—songs and stories that tell of hope, unity and seeking a greater kingdom.
