Fans of indie pop should become familiar with Toronto's The Holiday Crowd. Their most recent release is the double A-side single "Sick Days". The record is available on Shelflife Records in the US and New Romantic in Canada.
Both "Sick Days" and flip side "Born Under A Different Sign" boast upbeat arrangements with excellent vocals that may remind one of Morrissey or Ian Curtis in a buoyant mood. This is great driving music that never fails to put me in a good mood.
The Holiday Crowd is Imran Haniff (vocals), Dave Barnes (drums), Alex Roberts (bass), and Colin Bowers (guitar).

Channeling the great Lloyd Cole, I think... good stuff.
