Canary

Canary (Melbourne) brings together an unorthodox bunch of musicians under the innovative eye of singer-songwriter Matthew Kenneally. The band has already developed a reputation as an engaging live act, at times lush and energetic and at others introspective and personal. They perform with a rare kind of honesty to mesmerizing effect. They have spent the majority of 2010 focusing on their exciting debut album “Dear Universe” released in November 2011.
Drawing on a colourful spectrum of musical influences, Canary's music is rich, imaginative and unabashedly emotive. Vibrant trumpet lines, dexterous beatboxing, lyrical bass riffs and brash guitar provide the underscore for Matt's from-the-heart lyrics.
