Biography
Based in the Junction neighborhood in Toronto, Here Comes the Cavalry can be heard from the sidewalk of Dundas W on most any given night. Made up of polar opposites albeit complimentary personalities, this five-piece blends many influences and styles into a listener-friendly mix that eludes labels. They are classical purists and jazz cats; metal junkies and techno heads. Although there is much push and pull going on, the focus is always on sound and song which is what makes HCTC one of the most entertaining groups of musicians in the GTA. Their first full-length album, Bone and Flesh, consists of up-beat alt-country songs juxtaposed with driving rock anthems.
Lyrics
So Long
Written By: Liam Kearney
Headed out at you own pace,
You smiled as you walked away from us.
Then tripped on your shoelace,
And splashed your eyes towards mine, so long.
Linger: memories of music in the setting sun,
Will carry me away.
Crumbled beneath your own weight,
You've lived a thousand years if I've lived one.
With such elegant taste,
Our worlds could never be the same again
Linger: memories of music in the setting sun,
Will carry me away.
Try to gather all the freedom in this world
But I was giving it all.
So Long
