ENTER THE HAGGIS
ENTER THE HAGGIS
Over the past three albums and five years, Toronto’s Celtic rock band Enter The Haggis has found itself at the center of a grassroots success story ever teetering on the brink of mainstream success. A workhorse group that performs nearly 150 dates out of the year, the band has amassed an ever-growing, devoted tour following from its humble Toronto roots, leaving not only fans, but die hard “Haggis Heads” in its wake nationwide. Constantly honing and evolving their sound – blending elements of rock and pop with traditional Celtic fare, an art school eclecticism and a keen sense of arrangement, in March 2009 ETH released Gutter Anthems, their most cohesive record to date, yet one that makes the band’s trademark eclecticism shine. From Celtic festivals to headlining rock venues and from Billboard World Music charting to major television appearances on shows like Live With Regis And Kelly, ETH has made its success one fan, one town, one region at a time.
ZACHARY SCOT JOHNSON
Singer-songwriter Zachary Scot Johnson captivates listeners with the lush emotional landscape of his acoustic fusion music. He blends blues and folk, alt-country and pop, and rock-n-roll, creating his signature sound, a distinctive musical flavor unlike any other. Yet it is absolutely accessible and connects with the heartstrings we all have inside us, waiting to be touched. But there's nothing cloying or artificial here, only genuine emotions, real impact, heart-on-sleeve emotional honesty, all driven by remarkable talent.
