DOWN WITH THE BUTTERFLY

LISTEN HERE

Progressive pop rockers David Scholten (vocals), Kris Pope (guitar), Jason Burns (drums), and Ian Sherwood (bass), enjoy making intense, beautiful and insightful music. They don't shop at malls and they are conscious of sharing with their neighbours. They download music but they still buy CD's. They are lighthearted guys who take their band very seriously. Down With The Butterfly is a family of idealists trying express their thoughts about a beautiful world that often tears us apart.

Down With The Butterfly is from Eastern Canada (the Band was born in Halifax, NS) and is inspired and encouraged there. They've been a band since May of 2005 and with the help of industry, fans, and friends, tour non-stop throughout Eastern Canada and released their debut CD, 'RISE', in May of 2006.

I swear this one is way more cool than it's 16 views indicates. I swear.

I've only seen them once, and it was without the string section, but DWTB is great. The singer/front-man guy has an excellent rock n' roll voice and presence.
