Originally formed in 2008, Original Pairs channel garage, rockabilly, and psychedelia through a dark poetic filter. Founding members Andrew Frontini (vocals, guitar) and Lisa Logan (drums) shared a love of rock n’ roll and the local indie music scene, in turn, found them creating Original Pairs. The group eventually evolved into a four-piece adding Lynda Krarr (bass), and Jon Loewen (keyboards).

Canadian rock revival outfit Original Pairs are a dynamic, high-energy, rock combo. Known for their otherworldly blend of rock n’ roll, indie, garage, and pop fusion, the group captivates listeners with their mesmerising storytelling and energetic productions on their highly-anticipated new album, Long Play.

With a consistent back catalogue of high-quality releases since their debut album, Forbidden Fruit, their latest offering showcases a more polished style, format, and dedication to their outstanding music.

Long Play, is a pivotal point in the musical evolution of Original Pairs. The compilation explores a couple's life together with themes of love, obstacles, and growing old together. It has a superb genre blend, ranging from rock to pop. With each track, this sonically varied and captivating collection guarantees that listeners will be captivated from beginning to end.

The well-produced productions allow the vocals to soar seamlessly blending a combination of nostalgic and current aspects that cross over into the commercial world. Co-producer and engineer John Dinsmore's atmospheric soundscape produced amazing tunes with a large, live, and articulate sound that gave, Long Play, a crispy, crunchy, heavy rock 'n' roll feel.

Throughout the eight tracks, fans of rock n' roll, indie, garage, pop fusion, and everything in between will find something for themselves to vibe to. With a strong rock foundation surrounded by a broad sonic pallet of songs that showcase their whole spectrum of musical influences, Original Pairs demonstrates their ability to move across genres with ease and flair, as does, Long Play.

On the release, Original Pairs comments, “Rock ‘n ‘roll is nearly dead, so we need to revive it. That means saying what you mean, playing what you play sweating it out, live off the floor. No clicks, no comps, no edits, no cynical force-fed, second-guessed crap.”
