Bands you wish your country was known for
As the title implies, there are always a few bands you wish you could pawn off on another country. We have more than our fair share from Canada, Celine Dion, Nickelback *shudder* and quite a few others, but also a lot of real talent. So what bands from your country do you think should have more exposure?
I'll start off with one of my favorite rap artisis, DL Incognito, an underground artist from Ottawa. He's got a pretty solid local following, but outside that he seems to pretty unknown.
Next up we have Pony Up, an indie band from Montreal
Lastly, the Arkells from Hamilton. Check out the whole Jackson Square album.
