So I’m blogging about the upcoming Rah Rah show again… I mentioned last week that they were coming back to the Habitat for a headling show on July 1st. They’ll be joined by Sleepless Knights. There new album “Going Steady” is great! I’m listening to it right now actually.

Since making their out-of-town debut at Pop! Montreal in 2006, the buzz surrounding Rah Rah has been growing steadily. They were voted “Best Band in Regina” by a 2007 Prairie Dog’s Reader’s Poll, have played festivals across Canada, and released their first full-length album ‘Going Steady’ via Young Soul Records (Library Voices, Polymaths, National Frost).

“Very accomplished despite their youth, Rah Rah plays immense, poetic rock tunes…” – Montreal Gazette

The six piece features members of Sylvie, Geronimo, and the late Despistado. Since its release ‘Going Steady’ has received consistent air play on CBC Radio 3 (reaching #5 on the R3-30) and has charted on campus radio stations and in Exclaim! magazine for the last two months.

“There’s just something compelling about this band, whether it’s Burns’s earnest delivery (shades of a baritone Neil Young), the catchy tunes underpinned by rock solid musicianship, or the fact that one of their songs calls for a sound effect created by chewing candy into the microphone.” – ChartAttack
