The Alternative-Rock act Pilate formed in 1999 in Toronto, CANADA, by
New Zealand native singer+lyricist Todd Clark; he placed an ad online
for a bassist and found Ontario College of Art and Design student Ruby
Bumrah; Bumrah recruited guitarist Chris Greenough, who in turn recruited
drummer Bill Keeley when the band's original drummer left.
An indie six-song EP titled "For All That's Given Wasted" helped
establish their sweeping, epic sound and the group developed a fervent
cult following on the Toronto area club circuit.
By 2002, MapleMusic Recordings had honed in on their talents and signed
on to release what would become their debut full-length CD, "Caught
By The Window", which was released in September 2003; Pilate took
off, evolving from a Toronto cult secret to a Canada-wide threat and then
embarked on tours in Japan and Australia.
The foursome are ready to release their sophomore album entitled, "Sell
Control For Life's Speed"; the first single, "Barely Listening",
has already debuted on radio stations and is garnering major airplay across
Canada.
