After a quiet month which we used to do some recording for our upcoming EP, we have a lot of exciting stuff coming up soon! Check out our ‘Upcoming Shows’ page, which has been updated.
Next up, we are pleased to be performing in the Downtown Milton Street Festival, this Saturday June 2nd. We’ll be on the OLG Stage which is located at Mill St. and Martin St. in downtown Milton, from 12-1PM.
We’ll be singing a collection of old favourites and new tunes, and we would be thrilled to see you there!
This April, Countermeasure is thrilled to be involved with SING! The Toronto Vocal Arts Festival!
SING! is Toronto’s first-ever a cappella festival, dedicated to celebrating Canadian and International vocal artists, and joined in collaboration by the same goal: to illustrate that the voice knows no limits – knows no constraints of genre, language or cultural background; to inspire and educate today’s youth; and to foster a new and revitalized patronage for the vocal arts.
SING! Runs from April 13th to April 15th, and will be taking place at Toronto’s Harbourfront Centre.
The lineup of talented performers almost won’t fit in a single blog post, but here’s a sampling (note that some of the links below contain audio – beautiful audio!):
And if you know members of a participating group (including Countermeasure!), get in touch to ask them about special promotions that are going on.
Don’t hesitate. Check out SING! now at http://www.torontovocalartsfestival.com/
Happy Valentine’s Day!
For those curious: this was the project we mentioned in very vague terms a few weeks ago. Share it everywhere! Let us know what you think!
We’ve got a lot cooking right now, so hang on tight.
First, we have a very ambitious gig taking place in the next few weeks. We’ll tell you all about it… when we can!
Second, we’re in the studio. All of our repertoire is captivating in person, to be sure, but wouldn’t it be nice to listen to us whenever you want? Well, we’re going to make that happen.
Third, we’re deeply excited to be able to share with you the first quiet whispers about “Sing!”, coming in the spring.
And finally, keep your eyes on this site (or an RSS feed, or our twitter feed) for new songs and videos to be posted in the next few weeks.
Come one more step ahead with us!
It’s almost time! Tune in to Toronto’s CityTV at 8:00 am to catch Countermeasure live on Breakfast Television!
Update: see the video on Breakfast Television’s site! Now links directly to our “A Cappella Group” clip, though there will be a short advertisement played before we sing.
This is very exciting!
Tell all of your friends and family!
This is something we’ve been waiting for for a little while, and this Friday, Countermeasure joins up with City TV to bring some “Toronto’s newest a cappella awesomeness” (Tyler Stewart of the Barenaked Ladies) to the early risers of Hogtown!
