BRAIDS


BRAIDS (formerly The Neighbourhood Council) is an art rock band from Calgary, Alberta presently based in Montreal, Quebec. BRAIDS consists of Raphaelle Standell-Preston ( vocals/guitar), Katie Lee (keys/vocals), Austin Tufts (drums/vocals) and Taylor Smith (bass/guitar/vocals). The band members met at a young age and began collaborating in high school. Convincing one another to skip university, they stayed in the garage all year and practiced obsessively, even while their fingers froze during the cold Canadian winters. Then the band (still in their teens) took the bold step of moving across the country together to Montreal. This culminating into their debut album entitled Native Speaker (released 01/18/2011). This is "Plath Heart" off that very album. Enjoy your weekend!
