Sixty Stories
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sixty Stories was a Canadian 3 piece, female-fronted indie rock band from Winnipeg, Manitoba. They formed in 1999, released a demo and toured Canada in 2000. In 2001 they released a split-CD with the defunct band Painted Thin titled Different Places to Sit / A Loveless Kiss. In 2002, the band saw the addition of Sarah Sangster on bass and released Anthem Red which made its presence felt on the Canadian National College Radio Charts.
The band's original members included Jo Snyder (guitar, vocals), Kelly Martin (bass), and Paul Furgale (drummer, formerly of Painted Thin). Martin was later replaced by Sarah Sangster, and Andrew Filyk provided additional guitar. The band continued performing and touring through 2004 before disbanding following the departure of Furgale.
In 2004, some members of the band formed a side-project called Anthem Red, drawing their name from the title of a Sixty Stories song. As of November 2006, that band's membership consists of Snyder, Sangster, Dustin Karsin (drums), and Andrew Filyk (guitar, vocals). Their album, Dancing on the Dishwasher, was released in October 2006.
In November 2006, Sixty Stories reunited in preparation for a German tour promoted by the punk label The Company With The Golden Arm. Membership at that time included Sangster, Snyder, Furgale, and Andrew Filyk.
