The best kept secret in music
Press
AlchemistQ is definitely a band to watch for in 2007. Definitely one of the premier psych-retro-groove bands in Toronto. That was a great set at The Smiling Buddha. I remember thinking, man, these guys are too good to be playing venues like this. Retro garage-rock swagger, groovy vibes, and Alex is a charismatic frontman. Great combination! Keep to your musical vision guys.

Bio
Theres always been a gap in music, where the few and far between gather to try and create something beyond comprehension. Good music is beyond comprehension, it strikes you down like a bolt of lightning. With influences such as Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Nine Inch Nails, Jimi Hendrix, and Pink Floyd, AlchemistQ has found its unique sound that will turn the band into the next rock legend.
In August 2003, the members of AlchemistQ met through an intricate maze of random musical acquaintances. You cant help but wonder if destiny had anything to do with the crossing of these paths. The four gather in Pouya's basement studio for sessions involving writing and rewriting. The band is a firm believer in the idea that work is only hard if you dont enjoy it. In 2005, Sweet & Short was released as Lazy Suzans first album. A year later, the single Reborn On Mars (former known as The Alchemist) marked the bands musical destiny and the band changed its name to AlchemistQ.
2007 was the bands most successful year, as AlchemistQ has created a great buzz around Toronto and is now expanding to Montreal. The band has gained much recognition at both legendary and trendy local venues such as The Horseshoe Tavern, El Mocambo, Ciao Edie, Smiling Buddha Bar, Andy Poolhall, Revival, Raxx, Savannah Room, and Sneaky Dees. AlchemistQ will be playing in Toronto and Montreal during the summer as the band gets ready to release its first album.
