The Waking Eyes

Formed in 2000 from the remnants of pop band the Pets, the trio devoted 15 months to work in studios and assorted other spaces while completing debut album Combing the Clouds, an allusion to a Pink Floyd song. The group has since toured throughout Canada and abroad. Shared stages with the Apples in Stereo have also taken place, and the act remains signed to the eclectic label Endearing Records, based in Winnipeg.
