Here is a review from our tour kick off show in Vancouver this past Saturday August 14th, 2010:
——————————————
“A refined, practiced and thoughtful,polished sound that reminded me of an early Counting Crows, but with a more soulful Dave Matthews-esque sound put forth from lead singer Freddie Mojallal. Backed up by energetic, lively and unusually charismatic drummer Sean Lavoy and the calm and cool Dyllon Mitchell on bass, The Autumn Portrait oozes charm and personality, but also shows the harmony and trust of a band that is just waiting for a big break to shoot them up into the stratosphere where they can really strut their stuff…clearly only just beginning to tap into their potential…They could easily follow in the footsteps of bands like Dave Matthews or Counting Crows..”
The Autumn Portrait will be on their Western Canada tour this summer in support of their new “Roads” EP. Stay tuned for more exciting announcements shortly! Check the “DATES” section for venue details. So excited to get on the road!!!
I didn’t get into the Peak Performance Project contest. No biggie. Oh well, I will just use this as motivation to continue doing what I’m doing. Things are progressing nicely.
We are recording a full album in July with Tom from The Zolas.
And a Western Canada Tour in the works for mid-August!
