Well for all of you who have not had a chance to see a IFS show live, well now is your chance. Sure you’ve heard them all the time on CBC Radio 3 and maybe caught a youtube video or two, but really the live show is where it is at. This Halifax quartet make such good, and awe-inspiring music… from intricate slower songs, to my favorite’s they do which slowly build up on you and explode with sound. The guys formed at Mount Allison University (where I first met/saw them) in and around 2002/2004 and have since moved to Halifax and put out two full length albums (”Coast is Clear” and “We Are An Empire, My Dear”.

If you haven’t had a chance to listen to them, do yourself a favor now. They have literally every track available on their CBC Radio 3 page.

And some great vids:
