Hillside Cres. is a band named after a street. Still there? Good. Like its name, Hillside Cres. is unlike any other. The trio of Northerners from the forests of Manitoba cycled its way into the realm of catchy pop music, where their hooks and flavour caught on like Pet Rocks did in the 1950s. Though the lineup has changed in the past, Alex King (vocals, guitar, drums, and arrangements), Aman Thethy (vocals, guitar, keys), and Sean Stewart (vocals, keys) have settled together to form a band that delivers an outstanding live performance. Thethy’s and Stewart’s skills on guitars and keys offer pleasing textures that compliment the darker lyrics King writes about love, growing up, loss, and fear of the unknown. Inspired by bands like Wolf Parade, Beirut, The National and Arcade Fire, the members of Hillside Cres. have been working together under various incarnations since 2006. Their experience in working together musically has brought them together as a band that actually loves their music. Love them, and they’ll love you back.
