About Me


..
I would not have pushed so hard to contribute to the local and international independent music scene, had it not been for John Lydon's work. Being that it has most inspired me, I must direct you to check out his site. And enjoy...or die!
BIO
THE 13TH
Wholly distinctive on the Toronto & international indie scene, The 13th has a sound that is diverse yet refreshing and hard to pin to one genre. The music is a strange mix of heavy rock guitars, powerful rhythms, and eclectic and progressive vocals.
The 13th is best experienced live.
The 13th are Izzy Novak, Rob Kemp, Josh, Mr Uzzi and J$

SYNTHETIKA
