Dundas' Colour Film (aka Matthew de Zoete) Launches Wonderful, Cinematic EP

The EP, Super 8 is the debut recording under Dundas singer/songwriter Matthew de Zoete's new musical identity, Colour Film.  With this new name comes a wonderful, cinematic style of music.

Matthew has always been an amazing lyricist but he's outdone himself on the EP by consciously creating imagery for the listener to experience.  Each tune tells an interesting story set to incredible pop folk melodies and strong vocal harmonies.

Backing him up on this project is  Julie Fader (of Etiquette, Great Lake Swimmers), Mark McIntyre and producer Les Cooper.

This outstanding EP can be purchased and/or downloaded through Bandcamp, cdbaby or iTunes.  It's also available at Dr Disc, Cheapies, Revolution Records and Records on Wheels.

A Mighty Tribe Kids CD Features Local Talent

Both children and adults alike will find a lot to enjoy on  A Mighty Tribe, a local kids music compilation featuring some incredible songs.  Best of all, proceeds go to help childhood promote literacy.

It features both previous and unreleased material from some of the most talented Hamilton-area performers. It's simple enough for youngsters to enjoy but catchy enough for the grown ups to get into the groove! Even the packaging is fabulous.  Adorned with beautiful Tom Wilson artwork, the CD case is a sight to see.

You can pick this great disc up at Picks N Sticks and Bryan Prince Bookseller or through the Bookbus website.  You'll be glad you did!

New Matthew de Zoete CD: Colour Film

With Matthew de Zoete's latest disc, Colour Film, the local singer/songwriter has successfully branched out from acoustic grooves to a more electric sound.

Matthew hasn't sacrificed his song craft though. Each tune is wonderfully constructed lyrically and sonically.

In fact, the album is an amazing emotional ride: going from slow and sensitive, rockin', poppy and catchy and everything in-between. Throughout it all, the disc has a wonderful modern sound to it.

The album is available at his live shows, through cdbaby (download and CD) and also as a download on iTunes and eMusic.

Below are a few live performances of songs from the CD, courtesy of Matthew's YouTube Page
