On this Brave New Waves session recorded almost to the day of cub’s 1-year anniversary, Vancouver’s all-girl ‘crush pop’ (or if you prefer, ‘cuddlecore’) squad deliver a stormin’ early ‘greatest hits live’ set in their inimitable and influential D.I.Y. style. After a phenomenal debut record (on Mint Records) which saw these self-admitted amateurs reach the top 10 of Canada’s college radio charts, the trio of Robynn Iwata, Neko Case and Lisa Marr found themselves further capturing the hearts of music fans nationwide during their first cross-country tour. More pertinent to the issue at hand, whilst on that tour they also found themselves in the CBC’s Montreal studios laying down the sweet and sour slab of live ear candy you find in front of you — and boy, is it ever an easy treat to swallow!
