A.gen.da : or Things to be done. The plural of agendum. In the begining of May 2004, AGENDA The Rock Band was formed in a apt/studio of the plateau Mont-Royal in the heart of Montréal. Todd and Mee-Shka have known each other since 1997. They would both gravitate around good ol' buddy Goose's pad on St.Laurent Blvd. From throwing around ideas, and philosphizing while enjoying tea, Mike and Todd decided to get a project going. Ingrid, originally from Moncton, N. B. answered an Ad on the Web. She was just what they were looking for. With a solid classical background (She plays violin since the age of 7) she was just dying to break free into some uncharted territory. AGENDA was born. AGENDA sees the light with over 60 songs waiting to be put together. Todd has written these songs over the past forteen years while travelling through Canada and while working at the most unlikely jobs. Todd has busked across Canada from Victoria to Montreal. The Montreal Metro (subway) is a great place for voice training and not a great place to make money, but when you get busy people to stop and momentarily forget where they are going, just to to listen, then you know you got someting good going. In '97, Todd was lead singer of a band called SAMSARA, performing some songs that he still sings today. What a great apprenticeship. People are still talking about the energy that night at the now defunct Jailhouse Rock Cafe, opening up the evening for Pat Gauthier's RAID and Toronto's GUTSHOT. Back in '89, Mee-Shka was the drummer for a local Montréal Metal band called REACTOR. A lot of drumming later, his last band being BENIGN, he brings along that experience to acomplish this agenda. Experienced Bass player Goose brings along musicianship and versatility to this AGENDA.

January 05, ...AGENDA is presently recording and Auto-Producing their first album with the help of Grant “Goose” Cormack’s technical Saavy and Dave Galea’s great Valvetone Tube Amps and Hybrid Guitars. Chao!AGENDA the Indie Rock Band from Montréal, Québec combines strong personnal lyrics with powerful infectious melodies to make great music!

Don't Wish To Hell Cop ChaseHey - Frank Zappa 70s cool. This song made me want to light up a fattie and put black light posters up in my living room. The vocal is hysterical and matches the instrumention perfectly. The arrangement is hilarious and the blending of the trumpets and wah is especially effective. This is one of the better songs I've heard on garageband, because the singer obviously doesn't give a crap about sounding like anybody else and is just doing his own thing. Tight and interesting. Good job. Reviewed by: maxedwards from Porter Ranch, California Original A+Very interesting mix of music... i like the bulding on the original bass riff. The vocals are not my thing but fit the song very well (can't imagine what else could replace it). The song is very RHCP 'suck my kiss' gone rock/ska. Keep up the good work Reviewed by: deadlight from Decatur, Illinois Unexpected, reallyBack in the college days, I would have loved the hell out of this band. Sadly, I'm 34 now and way past hip so I'm not sure that I can be fair to this band. I do have to say that the horns were kick ass.Extra Credit: Programming, Originality.- misspetula Sacramento, California.January 13th, 2005 Maude (T'est Toute Mélé)A+awesome strings. awesome production. i dig the vocals. this is really great. awesome percussion, groovy groovy goodness . A+++ Reviewed by: thekidcrash from Santa Fe, New Mexico Get's the heart beatingThe music is pretty powerful, but unfortunately I can't translate the lyrics. I wish I could, but can't.Unusual. Interesting. Get's the heart beating. Sorry I can't add more without a sense of the lyrics and how they fit with the music. Reviewed by: cdbaker from Loch Burn, Iowa Who said the French can't do this stuff?!!Hi,Liked the track - violin harmonies particularly characterful.Good lead male vocal.Production needed more of a live feel to it IMHO. Drums could been higher up in the mix and brighter; couldn't really hear the bongos.Tres bien :-) Cheers from Londres, JCps or you could be Canadian I guess :-)Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Mood, Originality. - FourteawonLondon, England, United KingdomJanuary 21st, 2005 A New Song Very different from the normPretty interesting track. It's got a lot of different things going on, kind of spooky guitars, some funk influence, and horns. Overall, it works pretty well. Someone else said it sounds like the Beatles. I don't hear that, but I do hear some other 60's references in this. I'd like to hear more from this artist.Reviewed by: leeroyboy from Puyallup, Washington Sounds like frank zappaI like the melody and the guitar parts in the verse. Trumpet is way cool, adds a lot. Lead guitar is fine. Nothing stands out. This is pretty groovin. Reviewed by: audiosaga from Plymouth, Minnesota Fun Fun FunThis song was rockin', and I don't use that word often mainly because it's so campy. But it makes you move and bob your head, great! I love the haunting sound of the vocalist, and the trumpets add a great kick to the song. Great job.Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Production, Melody, Mood, Originality, Grooviest Rhythm. - JacobHarpElgin, IllinoisJanuary 22nd, 2005
