FILMED DURING INDIE WEEK CANADA 2011!

Modernboys Moderngirls are a 21st century garage soul band. In the fall of 2009, they released their self-produced debut, ten song album, I Might As Well Break It. The record was hailed by Canadian reviewers as one of the most engaging, raw, rock 'n roll records of the year. Modernboys Moderngirls have "the kind of spirit that could make a ship full of seasick sailors feel well enough to rock out to the point of sickness all over again", wrote Exclaim Magazine. Herohill, one of Canada's top music blogs gave out its thanks to the group for putting " the brashness back in rock 'n roll". [I Might As Well Break It "leaves you sweat soaked, bruised and battered and remembering."

Before they had even released any music, Modernboys Moderngirls had already been making waves with festival appearances at Edgefest, NXNE, Halifax Pop Explosion and Canadian Music Week. Live, the band wore their punk/soul influences on their sleeves, prompting Chart Attack Magazine to observe that the band "rock out like the devil has taken them over". The band which had at different points carried 4-5 members is now a power trio, with Spanish-born bandleader and songwriter Akira Alemany on lead vocals and guitar, Venezuelan Juan Carlos Rivas on bass and Toronto-born Brett Millius on the drums.
