[ROCK] Traditionally, Americans are slow to accept Canadian music. Please note: This lag is rarely associated with a band’s talent. Case in point: Marianas Trench—a great Canadian pop band that didn’t break into the American market until their fourth studio release, Ever After. Frontman Josh Ramsay’s vocals are so sugary sweet they could put you into diabetic shock. Their songs feature sticky choruses and infectious verses, underpinned by pristine production. Their music videos are quirky and ironic. Check out the video for their later single “Here’s to the Zeros”, which parodies the entertainment industry. Catch Marianas Trench with Ivy Levan at Artpark on Wednesday, July 1.
