THE TORCHETTES (Calgary)
Dripping with sensuality, fuzz covered grunge guitar and the infectious familiarity of 60’s rock-soul, the Torchettes combine their angelic and emphatic vocal tones to create a sound somehow ahead of and behind its time. Think Amy Winehouse backed by the Blackhearts, Wanda Jackson fronting Hole; and you’ve still only scratched the surface of what this melodic trio can accomplish. Among the raw energy of their punk rock sensibilities lies a deeper carnal instinct, one matched with a notable understanding of composition, harmonies and delivery.

“Top 10 emerging Calgary acts to watch.” — CBC MUSIC CANADA
“The Torchettes deliver inspired, intense music that seduces the audience with sultry dulcet tones and then knocks them sideways with a full throttle attack. the musical effect is mesmerizing and delicious.” — THE CALGARY FOLK FESTIVAL
“They’ve cultivated a sound that is both old and new all at once — combining old-soul with new gusto” — BEATROUTE MAGAZINE
“Guitar riffs, driving horns and a solid back beat build around bang-on harmonies as this gutsy beast with a doctorate in black magic melts your bits into the hot and sweaty underworld.” — THE CALGARY STAMPEDE
“Vocals smoked in honey bourbon, Equally at home in sexy soulful lower registers as in belt-it-out powerhouse mode.” — CKUA RADIO ELLIOT GARNIER (STATION MANAGER)
