Hi Our Basement,
We’re The Mooks, a true-blue indie rock band based in Toronto. Formed in late 2017, we have independently released one EP titled: “Singles” in 2018.
After numerous live performances throughout 2018, we’re pleased to return with our jubilant new single “So Kind” for you! Out March 1st.
“So Kind” is simply a happy go lucky dance number with a melancholic undertone. It’s a classic story of unrequited love. It’s the first single from our forthcoming EP “I Hope That You Feel The Same”, out later this year.
The album was heavily recorded live off the floor by Juno winning engineer Calvin Hartwick at Dreamhouse Studios, and produced by the band. It features a newly reinforced sound and themes of discovery, love, loneliness and despair.
Thank you for listening, and thanks PureGrainAudio for the premiere
Stay tuned for more new music from us!
Hello
Hi.
Yes, it is. Here.
Hello
Hi Scott. I was outside doing some psychological ice chipping. Very little actual difference (though some), but huge boost in fooling myself that Spring is just around the corner.
Friggin’ corner.
I would mention that it is feeling nippy here but I don’t want to have things thrown at me
It’s a long corner.
I was on the news that Ottawa has serious ice issues this year.
Luke Perry of Beverly Hills, 90210 and Riverdale dies at 52

Garf, yes, just saw that. R.I.P.
Scott, yes, someone gave us some award for the most miserable winter. Saskatchewan and Alberta may disagree.
Most of our connecting side streets aren’t too bad, if still somewhat one-way because of snowbanks, but streets like my own (in a natural enclave, not really any through traffic) have AMAZING ice ruts . 4, 6, sometimes 8 inches deep. So much so that most astute drivers on my street are driving part-way on the sidewalk, avoiding the centre of the road. It’s weird, but then, people have gone back to having common sense. Not a bad trade-off.
I knew that common sense would eventually return if we waited long enough
(and by knew I mean hoped)
The thing is that it’s as fast to leave as it is to occasionally return.
I think we can share in the worst winter award. Winter is hitting us all hard it seems.
It should be warming up this week for a bit. Crazy blowing snow today.
I just heard about Luke. Too young to be having a stroke I say.
hi DBS, how was your weekend?
Hi Garf. It was very busy. I was taking photos for Blues Fest all week and then had a meeting about Playing for Change on Sunday. Throw in working 2 studios, making blog posts and rehearsal for a One Act play I am, makes things busy these days.
the highlight of my weekend was finding The Coroner on CBC Gem last night. I am currently watching episode 7 of 8
I’m starting to think I should pay the $5 a month
A bit of guilt coming in?
Do you do any online gaming? That was my socializing for quite a few years.
Not really my kind of music , but it’s sad just the same

I read that this morning too. Also too young!
just a little, I mean I am logged in and using the free version but I have been watching quite a bit the past couple of days (Kim’s Convenience and The Coroner) along with the fact that I watch the National most days and The Toronto Wolfpack rugby game most weeks.
I am not big on socializing at the moment and the only online games I play don’t have a lot of conversation in them.
I do hang out online with some people and pretend that I know what I am talking about on the topic of Canadian Music
Hehe. I was thinking about that. There just isn’t as much conversation going on here these days.
Did I mention that we have a new dog? She is a little smaller than I was expecting.
haha! Cute and easy to look after. What more could you ask for?
Cheap to feed and doesn’t take up the entire bed.
I have been thinking of calling her Polly, in honour of Suki (as in the nursery rhyme)
I am not sure what nursery rhyme that is.

Interesting. I remember it now but I don’t remember the Suki part. I don’t think it was one I heard a lot.
I have run out of Coroner episodes so I am going to get an early night
I will try to do better with tomorrows post
