The New Music

Boys and their explosives. In this new video from Sebastien Grainger and The Mountains, Grainger braves the cold while frolicing amongst the popping embers of fireworks and burning toilet paper? I briefly chatted with Grainger to get his scoop on touring and his advice on how to stay warm.

In your new video it looks like it was freezing, frigid, death inducing - other than lighting things on fire what’s your favourite method for keeping warm during our Canadian winters?

When it comes to keeping warm i’m an old fashioned guy. Whiskey, long-johns and sexy hugs.

You recently finished a European tour, does any moment in particular stand out as a highlight?

During our third london show i said a lot of outrageous things to the audience. There was some kid heckling me and i cut him up so hard he left. You gotta bring your A game if you wanna tango with a verbal terrorist in the heat of the night when things aren’t going the way they should and we got problems over in Africa, you know?

What is up and coming for you…I hear you’re hitting the road again for a bizzillion months…do you look forward to touring?

When there are lots of dates on the calendar it seems a little daunting, but once you hit the road it feels great. Having the opportunity to play music everyday is not something i take for granted. Also, it seems to be getting better and better and that’s rewarding. If i felt like i wasn’t making any progress i’d be super depressed.

Since we’re featuring your new video do you have any favourite music videos?

I absolutely love the new Yeah Yeah Yeah’s video for “ZERO”. It’s super fun.
