"ask the neighbors for their wifi, we can pay them back in beer..."
Bopping my head to the power pop garage rock swing of "Sweet Little Place on Agricola" by Halifax, Nova Scotia based Daveband, a sort of love letter to apartment hunting, and I couldn't help but think about the relationship we have with the places we live in. Sometimes it mirrors our relationships with people. We remember when the pipes flooded the downstairs and when the whole fucking thing fell apart. Our homes, our community runs through our veins either poisoning us or feeling like our life blood, enriching us, making us better.
THE FACTS AS WE KNOW THEM

Serving smiles “hot, fresh, and ready” since 2015, Daveband is a power-pop rock and roll band from Halifax, NS. Band leader and primary songwriter Dave Archibald, grew up listening to his dad’s record collection dubbed to tape, and that’s what this band sounds like: early 60’s jukebox rock filtered through a cheap mid 90’s boombox. Jangly guitars and chunky rhythms pair with hooky melodies and smooth vocals to form catchy, upbeat, danceable bops. Unflinchingly earnest and steeped in near-nostalgia, the songs detail slice-of-life moments that explore the joys and challenges of daily life.
