I’ve been kind of obsessed with some “big sounding” music lately, thanks in no small part to my continued infatuation with the TV show Glee.  I thought that–based on descriptors alone–Toronto’s  Everything All The Time would kind of sound like a school choir (quartet of vocal harmonies, cramming everything but the kitchen sink in, blah blah blah) but truthfully, this tight 6 piece pop-outfit is anything but blah blah blah.

The band has individually busted their chops supporting everyone from Feist and Sarah Harmer to The Hidden Cameras and Jason Collett, so they are certainly no slouches.  Having said that, there’s really nothing about their music that reminds me of their former employers.  Everything All The Time have a sound that’s truly their own: a blend of electronic dance beats and indie rock that’s not afraid to coax an audience into singing along.  That’s thanks to the big. boomin’ beautiful voice of Alanna Stuart, who brings a touch of class and soul to the whole proceedings.

I’ve yet to hear more than “Lazy Days” and the assorted tracks available on their Myspace page, but this will certainly be one band I’m keeping my eyes on.
