biographical info
You have probably heard of ex-By Divine Right members spawning off into several well know Canadian bands (Broken Social Scene, Holy Fuck, Feist, etc). Now you can add another to the list.
COWLICK (Hamilton ON) started one day in February 2006 when Dylan Hudecki (formerly of By Divine Right , Holy Fuck, Junior Blue) and his younger brother Jackson Hudecki (Burnadebt) recorded some improvised bed tracks in a studio out in the country in Hamilton.
Since that time, COWLICK has morphed into a 3 piece band (welcoming Ian Parker) and are making a name for themselves throughout Ontario and beyond opening for bands like Most Serene Republic, Don Cabellero, Hidden Cameras, Ian Blurton, Huron and a host of others.
On the cusp of their second album “WIRES” (independently released Aug/06/2010) COWLICK has honed their sound from a sonic mishmash into something more focused, song oriented, smart and sure of itself. They are up for what will likely be an exciting year of shows and attention.
While they are able to take the stage as a 3 piece, they continue to find a little help from their friends on their records. On “WIRES” recorded at Vibewrangler Studio, the likes of an all Hamiltonian cast Mitch Bowden (Don Vail/Chore), Lee Reed (Warsawpack), sister Kristen Hudecki, Terra Lightfoot, Jeremy Fisher as well as Aaron and Cam of Huron provided their raw talents.
Drawing upon a kaleidoscope of influences -- pop, folk, psychedelia, hiphop, funk, indie rock, noise rock & experimental, COWLICK has created a intriguing body of work that is wildly unpredictable, solid, and bursting with ideas.
