Brainstorm

After playing in an electric indie rock band for a year, Alex arranged for Vivian and he to play with a pair of musicians he'd met at a friends party one night. Aline and Evelyne were studying violin and piano respectively at Marionopolis where they met Doug, a long time friend of Alex's whom he met playing sax in high school jazz band.
A few jam sessions ensued and the group decided to begin amassing material. Eventually, a hurried end of Summer recording was arranged in Montreal to capture the work done before 3 members would leave Montreal for university (Aline is now at Humber and Evelyne spent a year at Oberlin before switching to Mcgill) and travel (Alex spent a year traveling the west coast). The group eventually reunited in Montreal to record another set of four songs, resulting in the release of Tiger Lilly EP in early 2010.

With a plethora of influences shaping the young sound of the group, Brainstorm draws inspiration from artists of all varieties. A violin player who tears up Jazz charts, a piano player who sight reads chopin and a singer studying Opera (they all have perfect pitch too, by the way) and a guitarist composing daily makes for a line up that's sure to stun and soothe audiences around the world.
