They have performed in dim saloons and sunny cafés, folk festivals and country weddings, small-town castles and downtown galleries, fancy hat shops and antique train cars - and once for an audience of several thousand bees.
Onion Honey has been heard on radio stations across Canada and both Raisin’ Heck and Earthly Trials charted on national campus radio. They perform regularly around Southwestern Ontario at festivals and fairs, parties and weddings, saloons and cafes, galleries and libraries, and pretty much everywhere else.

Ophelia Syndrome
Ophelia Syndrome are a collective of weirdoes who make noise together. They try to blend various keyed instruments, cello, bass, drums, guitar, vocals, and whatever else they can find to hit, pluck, strum or occasionally blow. The result is their own unique blend of “indie” music, a term they are fairly certain has become ambiguous enough to encompass their indistinguishable classical, jazz, folk, roots, funk, soul, r&b, classic and contemporary rock influences. Yeah thats right, they like music, listen to it, and unintentionally steal whatever they can get away with, since by now everything’s been done by someone else anyway… you’ll just have to decide for yourself what they actually sound like because you won’t read it here.
Based out of numerous Southern Ontario basements, garages and attics, the band has actively existed in one iteration or another since the dawn of time it seems. After recording an EP “Shades of Grey” and their debut album “All Things Forgotten” at Catherine North Studios, a stunning converted cathedral space, the band decided to return to their natural habitat to try and achieve a truly honest, cathartic, and performance-based vibe for their last full length fan-funded release: “North Sea." “From the basement.” is the latest release from Ophelia Syndrome, which is a collection of previously unreleased tracks, B-sides, and videos, which have been digitally re-mastered. Along for the ride are several rarities and oddities accompanying the EP. Listen and Enjoy? That's all folks!

Quorum
Barb & Peter Beacham
Quorum initially formed in 1971 in Montreal, with Peter as the bass player. Conceived as a large musical collective, the name was chosen to reflect the idea that only the members necessary for the performance of a particular song would be on stage for that song. By 1974, the collective was much smaller, and Peter had switched to guitar, but the idea that the size of the band on stage would vary according to the needs of the song had remained. Peter met Barbara in 1992, and quickly formed a musical partnership. After moving to Cambridge in 2008, Barb and Peter began performing at open mics, and cultivating new musical friendships. Having hit on the idea of a musical trio, or sometimes a quartet, with only two permanent members, Barb and Peter began to draw on their large group of musical friends to expand their lineup on a per gig basis.
The name Quorum seemed appropriate for this band of varying size and they began using it with the permission of the surviving members of the original band. Though Barb and Peter still perform some original material from Roderick Noble, Quorum’s principal songwriter, their material consists mostly of an eclectic collection of covers, drawn from such artists as Crosby, Stills and Nash, Melissa Etheridge, Jackson Browne, Paul Simon, Colin James and Pink Floyd. As a duo, they feature Barb’s warm and buttery vocals as a lead singer and Barb's spontaneous harmonies to Peter's rich deep vocals. Quorum is often asked to perform for local charity events and enjoys sharing music interaction with their community.

The album weaves beautifully evolving textures into a carefully arranged and multi-layered swirl of sound throughout. As a concept album, each song is also set around or involving a particular object with story-based and direct lyrics.
"Pink Objects" was mixed by Calvin Hartwick (Daniel Caesar, METZ, Cadence Weapon) at Dream House Studios and mastered by Phil Demetro at Lacquer Channel.
The album was also partially funded by the Region of Waterloo Arts Fund.
