The Interview Show: The Artist Life
The Artist Life are a pop-punk band from the burbs surrounding Toronto, Ontario. You might recognize their lead, Ian Blackwood. [Ian is the guy in the "Explosion" t-shirt.] He was on a short-lived tween-oriented Nickelodeon TV series called Instant Star (but, hey, it was produced by the people behind Degrassi).
After releasing a their debut EP, Living, on their own, The Artist Life signed to Underground Operations, Canada’s label for everything punk-ish–and the same label as MuchMusic superstars Protest the Hero. Their Underground Operations EP, Let’s Start A Riot, is available for sale all over the place. You can still download their debut, Living, from the band’s site for free! [Click here.]
Ian literally walked right off the stage and did this interview over the phone, so if he seems a bit shellshocked, it’s cuz he was exhausted, drenched in sweat, thinking about stowing his gear and guzzling beer.
Right now the guys are trying to get their latest single “Sleep So Sound” to chart on MuchMusic. Help them out and request the song (as well as watch the video) here.
