Imaginary Cities - BTR Live Studio [ep118]

Originally starting as a duo featuring Rusty Matyas (of The Waking Eyes and The Weakerthans) and Marti Sarbit, Imaginary Cities have evolved into a five-piece. The Winnipeg-based group does indie rock that fuses synth-pop and Motown-esque vibes. Sarbit’s soulful and uniquely-textured voice is especially captivating, even sassy at times. In 2011, they were a longlisted nominee for Canada’s prestigious Polaris Music Prize. /// Featured song: “Temporary Resident” /// Temporary Resident is the debut album by Imaginary Cities. /// Complete radio broadcast and playlist: http://bit.ly/J5nFCV /// Official website: http://imaginarycities.ca /// Twitter: @imaginarycities
