"Their sound punches convention in the face with a
fistful of indie cred and Radiohead-meets-Modest Mouse-meets-Godspeed
You." - Alexis Dow, Harrisburg Patriot-News
Headquartered in
Kingston, Ontario, Canada, Infotourist delivers all-original
industrial-strength solutions for the enterprise, such as:
• Circular coffee stains on planar surfaces.
• Servers humming, printers chirping, Esc keys clicking.
• Tired eyes surveying a lonely cubicle.
• Carpal tunnels collapsing.
• Cold caffeine substitute dumped onto a shrivelled potted plant.
• Pixelated but recognizable figures.
Infotourist's
raucous cubicle call-to-arms "Hello, Helpdesk!" achieved an Honourable
Mention in the Unisong International Songwriting Contest, and was
chosen to represent Canada on the widely-distributed Millennium Music
Conference Compilation CD, on which it was designated as one of the
best tracks by Barry Fox and Kira L. Schlechter of the Harrisburg
Patriot-News, writing that "the highly observant lyrics are brilliantly
pointed".
Infotourist has just recorded its musical
war-on-war-on-terror entitled "America Will Hide Me From The World",
which has already received an Honourable Mention in the international
"We Are Listening" 2006 Singer/Songwriter Awards, and was recently
chosen as a finalist in the prestigious Independent Music Awards by
judges including Peter Gabriel and Suzanne Vega. It is currently among
the featured songs on the "Justice Through Music" website.
Infotourist
has showcased at the Millennium Music Conference in Harrisburg, PA, and
at North By Northeast in Toronto, and has also performed at Kingston's
hugely successful Skeleton Park Music Festival where they were a
mainstage headlining act.
Having achieved this level of success
within only a year of their independently-released IPO, "Selected Case
Studies", Infotourist's stock has been given a strong "buy" rating by
analysts worldwide.
