This is it, folks! Tomorrow night will be No Shame’s first New Voices Night and it’s time to introduce you to our third and final new voice of the showcase – Toronto’s Steve McKay.

One may be familiar with Steve McKay’s musical endeavors with other local acts such as Bruce Peninsula, T H O M A S, and Timber Timbre, just to name a few, but McKay’s solo effort is just as worthy of your undivided attention. Having studied percussion and electro-acoustic composition, McKay incorporates said knowledge and the result is acoustic sunshine pop with some of the best sing-along melodies this year. A song like “Emma Comes Home” will get stuck in your head for days at end with it’s la-la-la harmonies and chorus and also some sweet whistling, and god knows how I’m a sucker for whistling – cue my obsession with that one Peter Bjorn and John song. Interestingly enough, McKay’s debut EP is entitled Whistle and he is currently working on a new release slated to be released in late 2009/early 2010 that’ll be released through Fuzzy Logic Recordings.
