Tune in daily this week as Jay features The BurnOuts on the Local Spotlight at 3:40 pm!
From Chatham, The BurnOuts were formed by Jonny Edwards in 2006.
The original line up consisted of Jonny, Tyler McPhail and Allan Weller, and in 2008 they released their first 5 track EP.
The band then began writing new material for their first LP when halfway through the writing process Allan left the band to pursue an education. After a 7 month hiatus he was replaced by Garrett Renders. While recording the initial EP in 2008 Jonny had been in contact with Dave “Brownsound” Baksh, producer and former lead guitarist of Sum 41, at a local Chatham show, asking him to open up for his band.
An EP was sent to him and instead he decided he could produce their new material. In September 2011 the band recorded a 9 track LP at Gentleman’s Den Studios with Dave Brownsound. Since then Tyler left the band and Mike Nuttall has filled in on drums. The trio has been playing shows throughout Ontario and writing new songs while awaiting the release of their album, “Pause For The Cause”.
