Since 1984, Invisible College have been delivering pop melodies backed with brooding strings, choirs and driving back beats.Band/artist history
The 1980s music scene in Kitchener Waterloo, an edge city one hundred kilometres west of Toronto, was a mix of punk, post punk, and garage bands that was vibrant and continually in flux. Few people will remember the names of bands like The Belljar and Anonymous Behavior, typical of local bands making vital contributions but, despite the talent within, not coming to much consequence outside of the area. However, one of the bands that emerged did manage to register outside of the city. Those listening to (then) alternative radio CFNY in Toronto and college radio in Southern Ontario (or, closer to home, frequented the numerous underground and backdoor dance bars) would have heard the sound of The Invisible College. Breaking the local mold by embracing the synthesizer, The Invisible College provided welcome relief from the gamut of local guitar oriented bands.
