An audio-visual tribute to Scarborough, Ontario. This project from members of the rock outfits Republic of Safety and Soft Copy combines the bleak and beautiful images of the Scarberian landscape of apartment blocks, strip malls, green space, subdivisions, ravines, malls and transit lines with original, instrumental guitar rock.
With a membership that’s three-quarters native Scarberian, guitarist/videographer Andrew McAllister, guitarist Jonny Dovercourt and and drummer Paul Boddum (along with bassist and transplanted Newfoundlander Wes Hodgson) explore the conflict in revisiting their hometown: both the classic angst of growing up in dullsville suburbia, and the unique present-day potential of Scarborough to develop into a vital community.
