Bio

Good Clean Feeling is an eight-piece folk-pop band from Toronto.

This is a band of best friends, cousins, next door neighbours and lovers; this comes through in their amorous music and collective vibe. With their sunny harmonies and polyrhythms the band can sound like a co-ed Jonathan Richman side project. Although their unorthodox hand-drum set-up and the size of the band seem primed for jamming, Good Clean Feeling has carefully crafted its tight pop music, arranging acoustic instruments, horns, and hand drums around their simple and earnest lyrics.

The band was conceived as an anti-cynicism project, a response to the morose tendencies of Toronto’s independent music scene; their live shows are a celebration of optimism and their recently self-released debut LP When We Sing showcases the band’s collective DIY spirit.

The band draws inspiration from Jonathan Richman, Talking Heads, Beach Boys, Animal Collective and Sandinista!-era Clash; but these influences are felt more in the feel of the band than in their sound.This group has no pretensions of replicating another band or aesthetic. They are an inclusive and varied group of musicians who cull from their eclectic influences and DIY vision.

Core songwriters Ben Hirsch, Maud Morgan and Paul Castrodale are joined by Jaymie Sampa, Tristan Murphy, Rob Cole, Derek Aubichon and Mark Castrodale. Percussionists Yusei Ota and Javier Navarette performed on 'When We Sing' and play with the band when they can.
