Bio
Buy the ..Proudly Resenting... EP.. ........ ..Formed as a high school hobby for vocalist Liam Trimble, Illfit Outfit had from the beginning taken on as its duty the spreading of pure pop bliss to its punk bogged hometown of Edmonton, Alberta. Never unconfident in marrying a fey hook to a bouncing rhythm, Trimble & cohorts took the outfit to the stage, spreading the word to teahouses and basements citywide, uncorking a steady stream of accolades and praise along the way, convincing Trimble to continue on past graduation. The departure of an original member and some role shifting within the group saw the inception of percussionist/multi-instrumentalist Jenni Roberts whose flexible, fluid style proved to be the missing piece in the group's signature ebullient rhythms. Now fully realized, they began to draw strong attention from larger venues and promoters. The group quickly became a fixture and a favourite among Edmonton music press and pop lovers. They capitalized on this wave of support with the release of the lauded Proudly Resenting… EP which captured the group letting loose for the first time on disc. A listen through its six brief tracks witnesses them stride confidently through shanties, vintage balladeering and contemporary pomp while delivering many listens worth of progressive riffs, dives and splashes. With support from multiple radio stations and a series of incendiary release shows, the limited print was burnt through quickly. Subsequent reprints of the disc met with eager hands over the next year-and-a-half as they invited Edmonton pop favourite, Doug Hoyer, into the fold and took their tunes on the road to share with the rest of the country. The group, now tapping the bottomless talent of multi-instrumentalist Catherine Hiltz and with Hoyer still lending a capable hand, are currently at work on a second release and a fresh suite of invigorating pop movements. - J.
