UNFIT Music, September 2023
The growing interest in the creations of this group, formed in 2011, stems from the fact that its Afro-Cuban post-rock musical experimentation reflects some of the new musical trends that distinguish the cosmopolitan, artistically diverse Ontario metropolis. It was with this in mind that the band’s founder and leader, Michael Owen (bassist and producer), created UNFIT Music, a record label and agency dedicated to promoting the avant-garde exploration of new, eclectic, hybrid approaches to experimental music.
The new opus builds on and expands the group’s musical aims, and features a rotation of musicians, including mainstays Reimundo Sosa (percussion and vocals), Lyle Crilly (guitar and synth), Michael Butler (saxophone and flute) and Anthony Daniel (drums). In 2017, the group received its first recognition of the merits of their approach. Their first Juno nomination drew attention to its original musical formula, the highly interesting blend of traditional Afro-Cuban rhythms with rock and post-rock influences.
