What do you get when you fall in love?
A haircut and a gun. Girls, booze, cigarettes, lust and desire, minimum wage, rock'n'roll days. This is the story of Les Gars. A brash trio, hailing from Toronto, Canada, which formed in February 2008. They write about what they know best.
Modern Life.
The songs recently added to this page are all but rough demos. They will be hitting the shores of the UK sooner then now. So keep posted. Cool.
