Canada’s THE
TREWS completed their US RESIDENCY TOUR in the tail end of 2011 as
they continue touring behind Hope & Ruin, their fourth
full-length studio album. Feedback was amazing and the quartet doubled
the crowd every week in each room they played. Now they're coming back
Stateside in January to hit the markets they missed.

“It is safe to say the crowd would have stood there and sung
back all night if the band had played on. It’s hard to say they left them
wanting more, as it’s hard to think of what more one could want in a rock ’n’
roll show.”
“Eschewing anything indie or edgy, this Canadian quartet pounds out frills-free rock and power-pop with no pretensions…
The songs are tough, the music is tight.”
— Hal Horowitz, CREATIVE
LOAFING
“Saturday at Uncle Slayton’s, sounds reminiscent of
Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, and Tom Petty filled the halls as The Trews
plugged in and rocked out. Playing to a full house”
— Allison Ray, LOUISVILLE.com
"The Trews could do no wrong and their catchy songs
whipped the crowd up into a rock and roll frenzy! The Trews provided an
exciting, unforgettable rock and roll experience for all those lucky enough to
be in attendance."

“The songs all creep up on you, rather than being
over-the-top. What they will ensure is that you’ll want to go back and
check them out again and again.”

"The band is too good for fans of great music not to
enjoy. You’ll find songs on this album that you’ll love your years, we can
guarantee you that."

"The Trews' strength is in the hooky rock that
dominates the set list... They nimbly balance between commercial pop and
tougher rock without falling into either camp.”
- Hal Horiowitz, All Music

“What impresses on Hope & Ruin is how
they excel equally at big rave-ups and swoonier slow numbers, raising and
lowering the volume and weaving together strong harmonies to suit each track to
a tee, a feat made all the more impressive by the album’s live-off-the-floor
recording tactic.”
- Dennis Cook, Dirty Impound
“The Trews is a refreshing blast of modern pop rock. Producing good hooks just seems to be in the very fabric of this band’s DNA and there’s no shortage of excellent songs to mine from the dozen on their latest, Hope and Ruin."
- Bill Sullivan, The Rock and Roll Report
“Big riffs, bigger hooks, anthemic choruses-Canadian alt-rockers
The Trews bring all of that and more”
