"We are living our dreams, after four years of hard work things are starting to take off in a big way for us," says Stanton. Painter continues, "we've had three hit singles and have two more videos that are already getting some great feedback, it's an exciting time."
The boys arrive in Canada at the end of May for media appearances and promotional events followed by a tour this summer. "We love Canada," exclaims Wright, "we feel very privileged to be launching our North American debut in such a beautiful part of the world."
