	Eulogies Venue: Hiro Ballroom October 23,2008 Concert starts @ 7:30PM Doors open @ 7 PM Tickets $15.00 in advance $17.00 at door. General Admission Standing Room Only / 21+ with valid photo ID The band formed in 1995 and released their first album, End of a Hollywood Bedtime Story in 2000 to critical acclaim. Their orchestral, dark pop sound and dramatic live shows cemented The Dears at the foundation of the then-pre-pubescent Canadian Indie Renaissance. In 2001 and 2002, they released the EPs Orchestral Pop Noir Romantique and Protest, respectively, as well as a collection of unreleased songs, Nor the Dahlias. In 2003 they released their second full-length album No Cities Left in Canada, and a string of highly anticipated shows at SXSW '04 launched their international career. The Dears toured extensively across Canada, USA, UK, Europe, Japan and Australia supporting the international release of No Cities Left and returned to the studio to record in 2005. Gang of Losers was release in 2006, and was well-received by the press. As of November 20, 2007, The Dears are currently working on their fourth album, as stated by Lightburn in a MySpace blog entry. The album is scheduled to be completed April, 2008. The lineup of the band is fluid and changes frequently. The band's core member is founder and lead singer Murray Lightburn. The group has recently seen some departures, with a new lineup to be announced. The Dears have had high-profile gigs as opening act for Sloan, The Tragically Hip, Keane and Morrissey, to whom Lightburn is often compared. Their music has been described as a cross between The Smiths, Serge Gainsbourg and Joy Division with Lightburn's singing voice being likened to Morrissey as well as Blur's Damon Albarn. The complexity of the music and arrangements has also been compared to Radiohead, Jethro Tull and early Genesis. On July 10, 2007, The Dears' newest album, Gang of Losers was named to the shortlist for the 2007 Polaris Music Prize. On August 6th 2008 The Dears announced that their new album is called Missiles and would be released in the United Kingdom on October 20th and in North America on October 21st of that year.
