About:
The band's core members are Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning. This duo recorded and released the band's ambient debut album,
Feel Good Lost, on Noise Factory Records in 2001, with contributions by Justin Peroff, Charles Spearin and Bill Priddle. However, when
they played shows to support the album, Drew and Canning found it difficult to put together an entertaining show based on Feel Good
Lost, which was an almost entirely instrumental album. As a result, they brought in a number of friends from the Toronto indie scene -
Andrew Whiteman, Jason Collett, Leslie Feist, and Metric's Emily Haines - to flesh out their live show with lyrics and vocals. Over time, the
band also came to include contributions from James Shaw, Evan Cranley, Justin Peroff, John Crossingham and Stars' Amy Millan.
All of the later guest musicians joined with Drew, Canning, Peroff and Spearin to record the band's second album, You Forgot It in People.
You Forgot It in People won the Alternative Album of the Year Juno Award in 2003. The album also included musical contributions by Priddle,
Jessica Moss, Brodie West, Susannah Brady and Ohad Benchetrit, but these were credited as supporting musicians rather than band members.
On the supporting tour, the core band consisted of Drew, Canning, Peroff, Whiteman and Jason Collett, along with any other band member
who was available to attend any individual show.
In 2003, the B-sides and remix collection Bee Hives was released.
Broken Social Scene released their third full-length, self-titled album on October 4, 2005, with new contributors including k-os, Jason Tait and
Murray Lightburn. The inside booklet accompanying album also noted several new faces as part of Broken Social Scene. A limited edition EP, E.P.
To Be You And Me was also printed along with the album. For the first time David Newfeld, who has produced Broken Social Scene's albums, is
listed as a band member.
The group appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on January 31, 2006 performing "7/4 (Shoreline)". At the 2006 Juno Awards, they
performed "Ibi Dreams of Pavement" at the show and their eponymous album won the Alternative Album of the Year award. In July, 2006 the
band announced a temporary hiatus following the conclusion of their November US tour while members work on their other projects.
Broken Social Scene's music (Lover's Spit) has also been featured in director Clément Virgo's movie Lie with Me (2005), Paul McGuigan's Wicker Park
(2004), Bruce McDonald's The Love Crimes of Gillian Guess (2004), and Showtime's Queer as Folk (2003). The version of "Lover's Spit" found on the
Bee Hives record was also featured in an episode of the third season of the FX series Nip/Tuck. Showtime's television program The L Word featured
songs from You Forgot It in People ("Pacific Theme", "Looks Just Like the Sun") in the show's first season. Music from the band's albums was used to
score the 2006 film Half Nelson. They have since composed and recorded an original score for the Canadian film Snow Cake.
Broken Social Scene has also been selected to score the 2007 film adaptation of Maureen Medved's novel, The Tracey Fragments. The upcoming film
will share the same title as the novel, and has been described as "a stirring tragic comedy and a 21st century Catcher in the Rye, told in a dazzling
pop-art fashion." Broken Social Scene were last minute replacement performers at North America's first Virgin Festival, at Toronto Islands Park, the
weekend of September 9-10, 2006. Contacted on September 7, after headliners Massive Attack cancelled due to problems involving obtaining US visas,
the entire band, just returned from a European tour in August, managed to assemble to close the festival Sunday night. Appearing on the main Virgin
Mobile Stage, immediately following performances by international superstar bands The Strokes and The Raconteurs, BSS took the stage at 10:00 p.m.,
and played a set of over an hour. Through the performance the band was joined by part-time members, and stars in their own right: Feist, Amy Millan
of Stars, k-os, and Emily Haines of Metric. This was also the last Canadian performance of the band to date and features the rare 15 member lineup of the band.
In late 2006, several members of the band appeared as special guests on The Stars and Suns Sessions, the second album from Mexican indie band Chikita Violenta.
The album was produced by Dave Newfeld.
