Local Spotlight- Anu Beginning

Tune in daily all this week at 3:40 pm as Jay & C-P feature “ANU BEGINNING” on the XS Local Spotlight.

“Anu Beginning is a progressive pop rock band hailing from London, Ontario, Canada. Formed in the winter of 2008 they quickly began covering ground by beginning to form a rapidly growing fan base around southern Ontario. After releasing a self titled 4 song E.P. in 2009, followed by a second 4 song E.P. entitled ‘Quiet Your Voice’ in 2010 the quintet released ‘We Move Mountains’, their first full length in February 2011. Often compared to the likes of Alexisonfire, Sleeper Set Sail and A Day To Remember, Anu focuses on bringing in elements of pop-punk, post hardcore and progressive melodic to produce a sound that appeals to many.

This, paired with a live show that has been described as ‘beautifully chaotic’ and ‘full of energy’ has been the drive behind the band since it’s inception. Drawing on lyrical inspiration from everything from failed youthful romances, political scheming, regret and religion, they strive to connect with the listener on a philosophical level. Add to that often furious guitars, demolishing drums, or, on the other hand, melodic guitars and delicate percussion, the quintet tries to capture their feelings in notes an melodies”.
