THE I SPIES UPDATE: SEPT 10, 2008
It has been a while my friends! The I Spies are busy working away on their sophomore release, and as a result the shows have slowing down. However, we're very excited to be playing POP MONTREAL again this year. We'll be rocking Saphire on St. Laurent, Friday, October 3 - 9:00pm sharp. Here's a Facebook group with more deets: http://www.new.facebook.com/home.php#/ev
We've also recently finished shooting a music video for TO THE CITY with Reactiv Films. We had a tonne of fun filming our first video. Can't wait for it to be ready!
And finally, we'll be releasing 2 separate singles this coming fall. Keep posted!

SPY(IES) MORE CANADIAN GOODNESS "This album will be an indie hit. Catchy, catchy pop goodness; post-punk guitar pop, reminiscent of early 80s British rock." by Joe Terry
