Formed in the summer of 1995, this 2-piece powerhouse's brand of upbeat mod-rock and post-punk quickly carved out an impressive notch in the Canadian indie music scene. In March of 96' (just one short year later) Duotang signed to famed Vancouver independent record label (and good buds) Mint Records. Over the next 5 years, Duotang released three critically acclaimed albums: Smash the Ships & Raise the Beams (1996), The Cons and the Pros (1998) and The Bright Side in 2001. All three topped the Canadian campus and community radio charts and allowed Duotang to tour extensively across Canada, the United States and Europe. They shared the stage across Canada with The English Beat, landed the cover of Exclaim magazine and in 2002, won the Prairie Music Award for Best Video for "The Evidence Comes From All Directions". Now, filled with a renewed passion and 15 years of pent up artistic creativity, comes Duotang's latest offering "New Occupation" dropping this fall on Montreal's Stomp Records.
