Ottawa Friday night?

Anyone up for the Said the Whale show at Zaphod's?

From Zaphod's Website:

The collective brainchild of Ben Worcester and Tyler Bancroft and recently turned 5-piece band, Said the Whale is as much a product of Vancouver's tremendous natural beauty as it is of the city's budding independent music scene. With a solid fan base accumulated from a litany of previous bands (My Buddy Dave, The Millionaires, WordsOverMusic) Said the Whale are quickly winning over new fans with every show.

Said The Whale is one-part Brian Wilson, one-part Nick Cave, a dash of the Shins, sprinkled with the Decemberists. Leave out the world of weary woe, shake, pour into your favorite legion glass and enjoy. They're a young band heading out into the world with a sound of their own.

- Rob Slack.

Said The Whale's unique blend of eclectic indie rock captures the essence of what it means to be young, free, and occasionally heartbroken in your early 20s. Theirs is the sound of a thousand summers spent lying under a star-filled canopy in the middle of a field. Original, incisive, and destined to set the independent music scene on fire, it is the sound of Said the Whale.
