Thanks Winnipeg, "Admit" the third track off our new EP "Self-Defense" has reached the uppermost precipice of mount Kick top 40.
Let's keep it up there with tonnes of requests and constant annoying phone calls to kick.
Thanks again.

So our very, very short post-holiday hibernation is over... We didn't store enough body-fat and acorns I suppose, so out we come to frolic again within and with the world. Yes, to prevent starvation, but also because we can't help ourselves.

What, then, is up? Many exciting performances coming around the bend, such as the 2nd Annual Manitoba Film and Music showcase at the Centennial Concert Hall, the prestigious and incredibly fun Festival du Voyageur in February (which, I believe, is french for the Festival of Voyagers), and also a couple of gigs at the Olympics in Vancouver. I'm told that this is a popular sporting thingy, so it should be pretty swell.

Please investigate the 'Show' section of this very website for real and pertinent details.

A few more things before we leave you to your happy internet cruising:

- Thanks to the Winnipeg Free Press for the fine review of the whole EP trilogy. Check it out here.

- 'Admit' is continuing it's treacherous and thrilling climb up Mount Kick Top 40, and of course big-ups to current kings of hill, Sons of York.

- It's looking to be a pretty great year, already. Look out 2010, you're gonna get made out with.

Good afternoon,

Wowza! What a weekend that was!
Now as you all tuck yourselves into a warm bed by the fire, and sneak a little brandy in your hot beverage of choice Quinzy wants to send a big thanks to all who came out to the WECC on the 11th and 12th to celebrate Quinzmas with us. Also a big shout out to everyone involved in helping us out this year. We certainly couldn't have done it without a bunch of help. Great job everybody, and have a wonderful and safe holiday season.

Love,

Quinzy

Check it out friends,

Hi Friends,

Labels: Geometry, Quinzmas

Good afternoon, all.

Though there isn't any snow in this town yet, that doesn't mean Christmas ain't coming atcha... And what's that riding on Christmas's shoulders like some gleaming golden toddler? Why, it's Quinzmas!

Here's how it looks:

The West End Cultural Centre Presents The Fifth Annual
QUINZMAS Featuring Quinzy & House of Doc

December 11 & 12
West End Cultural Centre
Tickets available at the WECC, and here: http://www.ticketmaster.ca/venue/139414/
Doors open at 7:15PM


A few years ago the boys from Quinzy decided to throw a holiday bash at the West End. They got some Christmas lights, a tree, some Santa hats, recorded a special song for the occasion, and invited their pals House of Doc to help celebrate the season. It was such a hit that they did it again the next year, and the next after that. Last year it was sold out for two nights at the Park Theatre, and this year we're proud to have the show return to the West End.

Quinzy is set to release their latest EP, "Self-Defense." It's the third installment in a trilogy that began in June 2008 with "One Boy's Guide to the Moon", quickly followed up by "These Nautical Miles" in February 2009. It captures the arc and sound of a brilliant and very hard working band hitting its creative and commercial stride. This year's Quinzmas promises to be bigger, better, and have more stuffing than ever before!
