Halifax rockers Sloan mark 20th anniversary of One Chord to Another

--taken from: CBC News



Twenty years ago, Halifax rockers Sloan released One Chord To Another, which spawned singles like "The Good In Everyone" and "The Lines You Amend" and became one of the seminal Canadian pop albums from the 1990s.

Now the band is in Ottawa, playing that entire album — followed by a few other favourites — tonight behind Ottawa City Hall as part of the Arboretum Music Festival.

"There's really only, like, four or five of the songs that feel nostalgic," said Chris Murphy, who joined bandmate Jay Ferguson in the CBC Ottawa All In A Day studios Friday afternoon for a feature-length interview with host Alan Neal.

"[But] even though I can play 'The Lines You Amend' with my eyes closed, and I play it all the time, it's fun to see where it goes — to put it back into the album sequence, as opposed to just, like, in a hits set."

Listen to the band talk about that song — plus more obscure tracks from One Chord To Another like "Junior Pantherz" and "Nothing Left to Make Me Want to Stay" — by listening to their interview below.
