Happy 2010!

Thank you for helping us make 2009 a great year. Many of you have come to our shows, cheered us on, and provided us with words of support. We want to thank you all for that support.

Brewchad was voted artist of the week in Belgium's GloomMusic. Thank you all who supported and voted for us. Without you, we could not have done it.

In the meanwhile, checkout Unsigned Talent for an interview and more.

Brewchad had a great time participating in this year's Omnium du Rock competition. Thank you to the organizers for putting on a great event and a huge thank you to all who came out and supported us. Last night's overwhelming response was quite humbling. We are honoured to have the greatest fans a band could wish for.

Brewchad was selected as one of this week's top 40 bands on Unsigned-Talent.com which helps promote indie artists around the globe. Please vote for us at http://www.unsigned-talent.com/vote.htm!

The Omnium du Rock is a 64 band round-robin style competition. 32 bands from Montreal, Canada, and 32 bands from Quebec City, Canada will perform and try to score points with both the judges and the audience. The competition will eventually lead to a show involving the finalists from both cities. Click here for a list of who will be performing in Montreal.

This show will be held at Cafe Campus - 57 rue Prince-Arthur East - on Wednesday December 2nd, 2009 at 8:30pm.

On Friday October 30, Brewchad played to a packed house at "Le Petite Campus" as part of the 2009-2010 Omnium Du Rock. The crowd was riveting and gave us a very warm welcome. We expected to perform, have fun and expose our music to a new audience. What we did not expect, was the rush we would experience by seeing new faces sing along to "Fairy Tale" and the cheers we got that pushed us into the next round of the competition, which takes place December 2nd.

We were equally proud to share the stage with 3 very talented groups; Preston Diaries, Sunset Drivers & The Goodness. Being surrounded by so much music & culture while in the very capable hands of Kay Productions, who have done a wonderful job organizing this event, made the entire experience both pleasurable and extremely memorable. We hope to see many of you come out and support Brewchad in December.

On Sunday, October 25th, 2009, Brewchad participated in the Montreal Battle of the bands Final. After being specially selected from a large number of entries, and months of competitive performance, Landmark Entertainment has voted Brewchad 6th in its rankings.

Montreal hosts an enormous amount of musical talent, and this ranking is an absolute honor. We now move on to the Montreal/Quebec Omnium festival where bands from Montreal are selected to share venues with Bands from Quebec city. Check us out this Friday at Cafe Campus.

This general-admission show features finalists from two previous rounds of competion. A total of 15 bands will be performing to finish at the top. The show will be held at Club Soda - 1225 St Laurent - on Sunday October 25th, 2009 at 1pm. Brewchad's start time is 3:30pm.

Brewchad has been hard at work for its next live show. Our time is going into small refinements, big changes, and entirely new elements altogether. We'd love to tell you what they are, but we'd rather show you. ;)

In the middle of this preperation, Brewchad has received a thoroughly moving and thoughtful email which we wanted to share with you all. We wish to thank Jaci Redlin for her email and for granting us permission to post it online.
