Tonight the lovely Kathryn Calder is playing in Vancouver at the Biltmore. After being known as a founding member of Immaculate Machine, and a New Pornographer, she has just released her second solo album ‘Bright and Vivid’. This has got me thinking of spinoffs, sideprojects and solo adventures.
Today on the show, I’ll be playing series of bands and their members solo and side projects. It might get a little three degrees of separation, but I think it’ll be fun. I also need your help! Surely we could be tied up with Broken Social Scene all day, but any others that come to mind?
If you like a band, do you always check out their member’s other projects?
What band has led you to another project/ album that you love?
Any solo projects or acts that helped you discover an old band?
