Heavy rhythms, intricate instrumentation and melodic dual vocals weave together a rich sound which transcends common rock genres while still being, unquestionably, very rock and roll.
Bio / Background
retrograde’s sophomore album release “This Frequency We Share” was recorded at Matchbox Studios in Austin Texas, produced by up-and-comer Dwight Baker, and mastered in Los Angeles by veteran Dave Collins (Soundgarden, Queens of the Stone Age, No Doubt). The album was released in Canada through MapleNationWide/Universal on September 13, 2005 and in Europe on Sweden’s Atenzia Records on October 24, 2005.
The first single “Letting Go” received solid support and was spun on dozens of satellite and commercial stations across Canada ending up on a number of "Top 100" of 2005 station lists. The follow up single, a cover of Peter Gabriel’s “Digging in the Dirt”, is receiving spins at commercial and satellite stations across the country and heavy rotation in key markets such as Winnipeg and Edmonton. This song was also just chosen as the #4 “power pick” in the Canadian Music Network Magazine.
↓ more ↓A number of television productions have also picked up on “This Frequency We Share.” Most notably, numerous songs have appeared in UPN's America's Next Top Model, MTV's America or Busted, & ESPN's Offshore Adventures. In July, retrograde won the Molson Rock Search in Edmonton, AB. This winner-take-all contest was based on both judge and audience voting and consisted of 200 bands from across the country competing for over $200,000 in prizes including recording time, video production, photoshoots, radio play, and gear.
In October 2004, retrograde released an EP entitled “Headphones” in Western Canada as a forerunner to “This Frequency We Share.” The EP had strong support from CFOX and regional radio, garnered critical acclaim from notable press such Vancouver’s Georgia Straight, and went to its second pressing within weeks of its release.
After returning from almost a dozen Western Canada tours, retrograde appeared on the cover of the nationally distributed “Muzik Etc” magazine in February 2004. The cover article focused on the band’s uncanny Do-It-Yourself initiatives. Around this time, the band inked a deal with Eric Godtland Management, based in San Francisco California. The company represents a number of successful artists, most notably multi-platinum artist Third Eye Blind.
Over the last few years, retrograde has directly supported bands such as Tea Party, Big Wreck, Nickelback, Default, Bif Naked, Theory of a Deadman, I Mother Earth, Big Sugar, & Wide Mouth Mason. The band has also performed at some of Canada’s biggest music festivals. Alberta's “Stage 13" Festival (attendance: 30,000+), Saskatchewan's “Rock 'N The Valley” (attendance: 50,000+) and Molson's SnowJam in Vancouver, BC (attendance: 55,000+) alongside the likes of The Tragically Hip, 3 Doors Down, Third Eye Blind, Our Lady Peace, Nickelback, Pennywise, Finger Eleven and many more.
In 2001, retrograde released their self-titled debut album. The first single "Complicated" was spun on over 40 stations across Canada and charted up to #1 in some territories. The video, shot with Triton Films (Bif Naked, Edwin), received steady rotation on MuchMusic & MuchLoud. The follow up single "Caught in the Sun" also charted on rock radio across the country.
retrograde has a strong history, especially for an independent band, but they continue to look forward. The band is currently writing new material and will be shooting a video for the 3rd single from “This Frequency We Share.” The band will be embarking on a coast to coast national tour in February and March of 2006. The tour will include an appearance at the Canadian Music Week Festival and a showcase in New York City.
retrograde is based in Vancouver, BC. retrograde is: Toby Hulse (lead vocals, guitar); Ben Hulse (drums); Mark Lazeski (lead vocals, bass); Brendan Stoneman (guitar).
