Biography
Living in Toronto, and being a group of five musicians with stong ideals and ideas can have it's ups and downs, but for the boys from Flying Eyes the relationship they have with one another set them apart from the rest.
There were no auditions, no first dates, they knew each other for years before playing together.
It is that companionship that allowed their sound to grow as a unique creature of it's own design, and let them stand out from within the throngs of other wanted ad bands.
They play through one another, and they listen to one another, something they will do for a long time to come.
They took their live show to the skies in April of '07, and toured Ireland with Large Mound, ending with a date at the Kilkenny Rythym and Roots festival.
There is a drive within this band, and it is excactly that which gives their band their urgent and powerful sound, a sound that the world has been waiting for, until now of course.
