THE NORTHERN PIKES & GRAPES OF WRATH

The Northern Pikes are one of a handful of acts that have a permanent
footprint on the psyche of generations of Canadian rock and pop fans.
Since first forming in Saskatoon in 1984, the group has had one platinum
album with 1990’s Snow in June, four gold LPs, and eight hit singles
that remain mainstays across the country.

Its latest album, TIME to TIME, released June 9, 2023 across
all digital platforms, and on LP and CD, finds the band taking a step
back to reflect on and revisit the best-loved tracks from Snow in June. The
Pikes have stripped the songs down to their essentials and created
fresh acoustic arrangements of “Dream Away,” “Love These Hands,” “Kiss
Me You Fool,” “She Ain’t Pretty,” “Green Fields,” “Girl With a Problem,”
and the title track.

Any fan of Canadian music from the later 80s/early 90s is likely
familiar with the Juno-nominated and multi-platinum-selling band The
Grapes of Wrath. Their 60s-inspired pop-rock was a constant on radio and
MuchMusic, with hit singles such as “All The Things I Wasn’t,” “I Am
Here,” “Peace Of Mind,” “You May Be Right,” “What Was Going Through My
Head,” “Backward Town,” and more.
