Description
“Hearts on Fire” is about the creative explosion in Canadian music of the early 2000s, which captured the world’s attention in entirely new ways. The Canadian wave didn’t just sweep...
show moreArcade Fire, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Feist, Tegan and Sara, Alexisonfire: those were just the tip of the iceberg. This is also the story of hippie chicks, turntablists, poetic punks, absurdist pranksters, queer orchestras, obtuse wordsmiths, electronic psychedelic jazz, power-pop supergroups, sexually bold electro queens, cowboys who used to play speed metal, garage rock evangelists, classically trained solo violinists, and the hip-hop scene that preceded Drake. This is Canada like it had never sounded before. This is the Canada that soundtracked the dawn of a new century.
Featuring more than 100 exclusive interviews and two decades of research, “Hearts on Fire” is the music book every Canadian music fan will want on their shelf.
Michael Barclay is the author of the 2018 national bestseller “The Never-Ending Present: The Story of Gord Downie and the Tragically Hip”. He is also a co-author of “Have Not Been the Same: The CanRock Renaissance 1985–95”, to which this book could be considered a sequel. He lives in Toronto, Ontario.
