Backwoods Justice

Backwoods Justice is a Toronto based quartet, currently playing around southern Ontario. Tim Carson, Rob Blank and Tyler Wagler grew up playing music and experiencing small town life together in and around Owen Sound, On. By 2005 they all found themselves in Toronto and began writing music together. After experimenting as a trio they enlisted the superlative drumming skills of Christian Ingelevics, who helped turn them into a powerful and dynamic live act. With each member sharing instrumental, vocal and songwriting duties, they have evolved their original sound out of their common influences of rock, folk, jazz, soul and reggae. This is not weak eclecticism but a thick, organic gumbo of sounds. The songs reflect wonder, concern and above all, love for friends, family, life. The year of 2008 saw the band take a brief hiatus, but are back for another round of ass kicking shows and some recording. They can be heard performing in Toronto and around Southern Ontario in support of their second EP, Earthquake Feet.
