Abandoned Souls hit the ground running in 2006 and have not looked back since. Accolades at industry showcases like Toronto’s Canadian Music Week and Sarnia’s K106.3 Original Music Showcase solidified them as an emerging Canadian talent. This opened the door to numerous supporting roles for Canadian national acts Default, Thornley and The Salads. They were also featured in their hometown as the sole supporting act for the near legendary U.S. group King’s X. Industry nods continued with several London Music Award and Jack Richardson Award nominations as well as advancing to the 2007 Global Battle of the Bands Canadian finals. Abandoned Souls’ energetic music has been featured on several extreme sports video releases, including the Tahoe Films ‘Sled Heads’ series. The first two singles “She Rides” and “Violets”, from the Circle of Shadows album, have appeared on the top 10 lists of countless indie rock radio shows on the internet.
