Union City

"For every jangly guitar linethere's a chiming rafter-raiser more reminiscent of U2.
Lie back and think of England"
- Darryl Sterdan, Toronto Sun



Peterborough, Ontario’s Union City released their first single “These Days” in North America on April 6th 2010 via Tinderbox Music and immediately received widespread airplay through American and Canadian college radio, cracking the top 100 in the American college radio (CMJ) charts.



Due to the success of the single in the North American college charts, and a successful mini-American tour to support it, the band signed a licensing deal with several television networks in the US (including MTV, E!TV and Oxygen Networks) in July 2010, for “These Days”, “The War”, and “The Girl Who Wasn’t There” for programs like The City (The Hills spinoff), Keeping Up With the Kardashians, The Spindustry, The Bad Girls Club, and Warren the Ape, among others.



In November 2010, Union City was invited to play at the 2011 Canadian Music Week in Toronto - the largest music conference in Canada.
Union City is currently writing and recording more material for a follow-up release, preparing for another American tour, and is hoping to make 2011 their year!
