The Counselors - (Montreal, Canada)
Alternative rock - http://www.myspace.com/thecounselors
The Counselors, formerly known as Requiem, have been together 12 years. They've had a few #1 songs in both independent and commercial radio stations in Canada. They played numerous gigs in Canada (Toronto, Montreal, Halifax, Sherbrooke, Quebec City) and Europe (London, Berlin) over the years. It all started in 1996, when they released their first EP titled “My Own Utopia” under Sorry Music. Sorry Music is a small indie label managed by the band members. The first song titled « Fading Away » from this EP topped the charts of CISM-FM Montreal for three weeks and college radio stations in Eastern Canada gave The Counselors music a significant amount of airplay.
The Counselors second release in 1997 titled “On Safer Ground” under Sorry Music also attracted positive response from press critics, major labels and college radio stations. In 1997, The Counselors have produced their first video with the song “In time”. In 1999, the Counselors have been the #1 selling artist on EworldMusic.com
In November 2001, The Counselors went back to the studio to record a single titled “Someone Right Above You”. Durings the weeks and months following this recording, The Counselors hit the air on commercial radios for the first time and their song titled “Someone Right Above You” got #1 at CFJO-FM 97.3 (Southern Quebec) and #6 at CFAI-FM in New Brunswick. This song also had extensive airplay in other commercial radio stations such as CHOI-FM 98.1 in Quebec City and other college radio stations in Eastern Canada from Ottawa to Halifax. This song was then in bilingual format but the song is now ready to be released in other countries of the world in Shakespeare’s language.
The new full-lenght album from The Counselors is titled "In From The Archive". Call Sebastien at 514-769-1442 for more information.

Tonight at midnight, the top ten bands will be selected to go to the semi-finals. We're currently in the 8th place so I'm a little stressed out. If we get to one of the top 3 spots, we'll be invited to play at the CMJ festival in New York City this fall! We need you to vote for us! Here is how: go to www.ourstage.com Register as a fan on the site. You'll have to give your email address, find a user id and a password. They will send you an email and you will have to go check your emails to activate your account. Once you have that, you go ourstage.com, click on ''Judge'' and you select the CMJ channel or category cause that's where we are. It's down the scroll down menu. You have to listen to both songs at least 15 seconds each to be able to judge. Our song is titled ''Any Other Place'' and you will be able to vote for us regularly because there is only 20 bands left to vote on. Merci beaucoup à vous tous!!!! On se reparle bientôt! Later everyone and thanks for your help! Seb
