JULY TALK IN CONCERT:
Canadian indie outfit July Talk is quickly rising the ranks with their blues-meets-pop sound and the engaging vocal interplay of dual lead singers Peter Dreimanis and Leah Fay. Dreimanis' husky growl is the perfect counterpoint to Fay's demure purr, and the duo play up the he-said-she-said drama with tongue-in-cheek lyrical bickering and amicable play-fighting on stage. Whether they're sending each other up on "Paper Girl" or rocking hard on "Summer Dress", the dynamic pair are the perfect front to the band's potent blend of indie, pop, and good old fashioned rock and roll.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
July Talk formed in Toronto in 2012 after smoky-voiced musician Peter Dreimanis overheard the angelic Leah Fay singing in a bar. She instantly became his muse, and together they assembled a band that complemented their strikingly different singing styles. July Talk released their self-titled debut album that same year, impressing critics with their robust blues-inspired sound and the playful vocal exchange of Dreimanis and Fay. In 2013 the band toured with big-name acts like Weezer and Tegan and Sara, wowing audiences with their vibrant energy and showmanship. Additional performances at festivals like Rock the Park London and the Toronto Urban Roots Festival helped cement their reputation as a must-see live act, setting big expectations for their sophomore album and accompanying tour.

Great show. I expected them to be good but they blew me away! It helped that the Danforth Music Hall is an outstanding venue. LOVE watching bands there!
July Talk always puts on a great show. Full of energy and fantastic original songs. The Rough Trade venue was perfect - intimate, great sound, fairly priced drinks - convenient to to to and from Manhattan. The sound quality mans this the best July Talk gig I've seen. The quality of the band is exemplified by how they hung around afterwards for photos with fans and to chat with them. A very special band.
Great show! Would totally recommend seeing them! Great energy!
Rough Trade NYC was a great venue made the concert feel like an intimate setting, love the chemistry onstage!

July Talk was amazing! Also even though I didn't intentionally go to see them, little hurricane was great too! They both rocked the place.
July Talk is one of the most entertaining bands out there when they hit the stage.
