Hailing (cabs) from Bankview, Calgary, these four young sweethearts make sweet, naughty, dirty, pretty songs about being children of the wilderness, made of mud, roots, blood and sun. Pine Tarts are craftily crafting their messy debut demos as you read this.

A no-name electric guitar with the pickups falling out of their holes, a bass that works on several frets, a no-name drumkit, a tascam 4-track.
Love love love fun fun fun
