DISCOVER THE LOST CHORD:
The Lost Chord brings back real Rock n Roll. No auto-tune. No studio tricks. Just great playing, great songwriting and jaw-dropping performances. This is music made in the same way as those days when we sat in front of our stereos and tried to climb inside to get closer to the music. Their sound, like a blanket of warm honey, wraps around you from head to toe and transports you to another time and space.
Formed in Toronto by a group of guys who share a love for rock n roll, they pour their hearts into what they do: making music that pays tribute to the great bands of the past while creating their own innovative sound. The Lost Chord wear their classic--modern--psychedelic--rock pedigree like a badge of honor. It is clear that they are every bit as psyched that they're making this music just as much as we are psyched to be listening to it.
Emerging onto the music scene in 2013 with an attention-grabbing showcase performance for Canadian Music Week, The Lost Chord has been wowing audiences ever since. The wall of sound this band creates during their spot-on live shows is nothing less than awe-inspiring. The band also delivers the goods in the studio and their debut album "Nostalgia" is poised to win the hearts, minds and ears of music fans from coast to coast.
The Lost Chord is a refreshingly original and relevant Rock band on a mission: to blow minds just like the legends of the past and to carry the music forward to new fans...A band to watch out for in 2014 and beyond.

"I master albums every day so it's hard to impress me...but [Nostalgia by The Lost Chord] grabbed my attention right away...finally a rock album with REAL singing and REAL guitar playing...this band is the REAL deal."

"The Lost Chord opened the night by rocking the Velvet Underground. Their sound should appeal to mainstream and serious rock fans alike as they play a style that mixes classic rock influences (think David Bowie, Pink Floyd) with the sounds of some of modern rock's best such as Red Hot Chili Peppers or Pearl Jam." -T-Mak World
"The Lost Chord may be a relative newcomer, as bands go, but they seem to have a lot of things figured out on “Nostalgia”. The music is real and original, and they didn’t overdo anything. This is about as good as music gets." KOVL Music Blog
“The Lost Chord, a Toronto based band opened the night by rocking the Velvet Underground. Their sound should appeal to mainstream and serious rock fans alike as they play a set that mixes classic rock influences (think David Bowie, Pink Floyd) with the sounds of some of modern rocks best such as Red Hot Chili Peppers or Pearl Jam. Numerous solos from both guitarists Louis Marc Vautour and Peter Johnson were intertwined with the very versatile vocals from Alexander Berry. Berry seemed at home with both the more melodic soulful vocals and the harder rocking vocals that you get with their set. His looks will also appeal to the female hard rock fans as part way through the show lead singer Berry removed his jacket to the cackling of girls yelling for him to take off his shirt as well.”
