biographical info

Provincial Parks emerged out of a hibernation period of recording sessions in a basement space when they set out to make an album of songs that had only ever been played live. Their quiet toronto home - known commonly as "Delaware House," an alternative venue where bands come to network, perform and record - served throughout this period as a converted studio space. From winter until summer 2008, their first ep 'Iron Ponies' was conceived and created with good friend and sound engineer Innam Haq. The band is made up of Will, Scotty, Pete and Ash who are currently recording a follow-up to the EP. A full-length record begins its process in the winter of 2010 and with good reason. See you soon ...
