artist Intransit

Reverb addict grad student meets felllow fan of cinematic.
Who then invites quiet, virtuosic hearthrob tradesman.
Who then invites quick witted and quick hitting drummer.
Who then invites an outdoorsy gear junkie tone master.

That is the very brief story of Intransit, 4 friends who share a common love for uncommonly moving music. After spending time writing and mastering their live performance, Intransit entered the studio to release their first EP [morning watch] produced by Tyler de Witt at Skylight Studios in Toronto in early 2005. With this debut EP, many achievements were realized - a small Japanese distribution deal with Duotone Records, a week long feature on CBC's New Music Canada, soundtrack offers, and now into a second pressing of this debut.

Just recently, Intransit has entered the studio again but with one of Canada's hottest upcoming producers/engineers, Brian Moncarz at Whirlwind Sound. This collaboration has proven to be a perfect match as they have just finished an EP [The Guilty], released February 2008. Moncarz, who recently finished The Junction’s first major label LP, also has Pilate in his discography. “Intransit is an extremely talented band that writes intelligent songs with great pop hooks. Having recently produced The Junction’s debut album for Universal Music, I can honestly say that Intransit will make waves in the Canadian music industry”, said Moncarz of the quartet. This new EP has attracted an independent label deal with Quadraphonic Records, as well as initial discussions with booking and management.

Live audiences have been taken by the band’s sincere and genuine passion for playing, sharing the stage with many Canadian greats such as Thornley, In Flight Safety, The Junction, and Jully Black. With broad comparisons to bands such as U2, Sigur Ros, and Death Cab for Cutie, Intransit is 4 different worlds that form a cohesive, relevant, and unique sound. Venn and his circles would be proud.
