Boats

Boats play music songs in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada with lyrics about dismemberment (the good kind), excellent posture, and orthodontic surgery A junky indie-pop band with high-end hopes but low-end equipment (total net worth of keyboard section: $40, all thrift store finds), Boats started playing in Winnipeg sporadically as just "Boat" in 2001. Since then they have shared stages with bands like The Waking Eyes, Novillero, The Weekend, The Paperbacks and Sixty Stories, which isn’t too shabby considering until recently they only averaged roughly 2 shows a year Over the years there has been a rotating cast of Winnipeg musicians who have played in Boats, but the current version has a pack of Winnipeg all-stars surrounding singer-songwriter Mat Klachefsky. These can include, but are not limited to, members of The Western States, Half Court Prayer, The Details, and Transistor Sound & Lighting Co. Listen at Last.fm
