2 BIG GIGS!



Hey Now!!!  The boys of TimeGiant are at it again, getting ready for two explosive shows this May!  Sharing the stage with our good friends in The Honey Runners as well as The Tricky Ones on May 10th at The Rivoli (Queen and Spadina), TimeGiant is preparing for battle with axes in hand. We'll be hitting the stage at 11:45 and breaking out an onslaught of brand new material fresh from the TimeGiant kiln.

LIVE at Canadian Music Week


Hey all you hangover having, long-hairs!  I sure hope everyone survived the debauchery of Canadian Music Week 2012!  TIMEGIANT played a packed house at the Supermarket in Toronto, Ontario on Friday, March 23rd to a boisterous crowd, fist-pumping with bull horns in the air.  With bars open and serving until 4:00am and over 900 bands from 40 different countries from around the world, friends and fans alike knew they were in for a ride.  Windsor fans would be stoked to know that we cranked up the tunes and kicked off the set with a rarely seen crack at one of the first songs we ever wrote, "BLIND".  Playing a 40 minute set with old TIMEGIANT hits and brand new tracks such as, "Close To Me", and "We Forgot The Reason", the band was able to captivate the crowd and have a whole lot of fun in the process (and with bars open till 4am, our 1am set was just a nightly warm-up!).  Special thanks to tmackworld.com for an awesome review of the set!  (See link below)

FIRE ESCAPE SESSIONS - Acoustic Live

TIMEGIANT - Temple in the Sky


Hey everyone,

Hope you enjoy this live acoustic performance from October 2011.  TIMEGIANT was performing downtown Toronto at a private location for the "Fire Escape Sessions" weekly recording.  Temple in the Sky is the 4th track off of TIMEGIANT'S first full-length album "GROW", and has been a constant summer hit.  Crack a beer, head to the beach, and ride the waves on down to California!

Special thanks to the crew at "Fire Escape Sessions" for making this video possible.

"Temple in the Sky" and other TIMEGIANT songs can be purchased on iTunes.

Cheers,

-Watson

FAMILY DAY!!! Feb.20th



There is nothing more sacred than the institution of family, and here in Toronto the boys of TIMEGIANT have reinvented the word and discovered love, passion, diversity, acceptance, and an incredible taste for cheap beer.  Through thick and thin and nearly 6 years together as a Rock n' Roll outfit spawning in Windsor, Ontario, TIMEGIANT has grown together to become a family like no other.  We spent the majority of the past 6 years living under the same roof, touring in the same van, and occasionally waking up in the same front yard!  We've never once turned our backs on each other, and I'm proud to say after all these years, we are stronger than ever and ready and willing to conquer the music industry.  From our early days as teenagers starting out just miles from the American border, to our many days on the road touring across the nation, TIMEGIANT has found themselves in "The Big Smoke" Toronto, Ontario with just one goal in mind.  Like the classic cartoon "Pinky and the Brain", we too plan on doing the same thing each and every night... "Try to take over the world".  So as we spend this Family Day together sipping sangria, reminiscing about past shows, and speaking of future glory we would like to extend our greatest thanks to you, the TIMEGIANT army!  To all the wonderful fans who have ever bought a ticket, screamed from the front row, provided a couch to crash on or just shared a laugh over a few pints, THANK YOU!!!  You will forever be a member of the rock n' roll, dysfunctional family that is TIMEGIANT.  WE LOVE YOU!!!  Stay tuned for big things to come from your crazy family in TIMEGIANT!  Cheers...

NEXT SHOW - March 24th - Canadian Music Week - Supermarket - Toronto, Ont.

New Drummer Crashes into Planet Earth

Greetings planet Earth.  Government officials have announced that an asteroid has struck the heart of the nation, after plummeting from a galaxy far away.  The large block of space metal has exploded in Toronto, Ontario and was noted to be carrying a life-force in it's gravitational pull.  Charlie "CMACK" McKittrick was first discovered by a group of long-haired rugged musicians known as TIMEGIANT and has since been accepted as one of their own.  Ladies and Gentlemen prepare yourself for a Rock n' Roll hell ride, batten down the hatches and retreat to your nearest bomb shelter.  THE BOYS ARE BACK and they're coming to a city near you!  New tunes, New drummer, and a whole lot of love!!!!!   GET SOME!

-Watstone Cowboy





-Thanks a lot C-Mack and welcome to the band.  Many incredible times await!  Cheers

Recording at Coalition Music... NEW TRACKS!!!


HEY NOW!!!  Well once again the boys of TIMEGIANT are back in the studio!  We're currently recording with Coalition Music, and working on some kick ass, LOUD and OBNOXIOUS rock n' roll tunes!  The process is exciting as always and the 15 hour days of take after take can really wear on us, but our spirits are never broken.  "I Am The Fire", "Reach Out", and "We Forgot The Reason" are the tunes we're currently working on, and believe me you are in for a real treat!  Picture a peanut butter-smothered chocolate fudge brownie dipped in Jack Daniels whiskey served by a gorgeous woman on a solid gold platter (or if you're a girl just picture Tyrone on a beach... naked).  That kind of treat.  The tracks are fresh and full of energy and we look forward to performing some of the tunes for the very first time live at our upcoming shows.  We expect to release a new single to itunes and radio stations across the nation by the start of 2012.  If your New Years Resolution isn't FOLLOW Timegiant hard than you're fuckin weird!  CHEERS everybody and be sure to catch our final show of 2011 and our first show of 2012!

December 23rd 2011  "WRECK THE HALLS" christmas bash   Live at the River Rock, Chatham, ONT
January 6th 2012  "LIVE AND LOUD"  Live at the Bovine Sex Club, Toronto, ONT



Thanks again for following TIMEGIANT, we love you!!!!  New website coming soon!  timegiantband.com

Sincerely,

-THE WATSTONE COWBOY HIMSELF

Another Kickin' Halloween / Back in the Studio


HEY EVERYONE!!!  Once again TIMEGIANT had a killer Halloween show on Saturday Oct. 29th 2011.  Despite the fact that you crazy Canadian fans drank the bar out of beer, whiskey, and vodka before we even hit the stage, I think everyone still managed to have a killer time!  (Rum and Tequila were still present at least!)  Costumes looked great, and we had an awesome time bringing Pro Wrestling and Rock n' Roll together!  Now that all the fun and games are over, it's time to get serious.  TIMEGIANT will be returning to the studio November. 11th to record an album to Remember!  3 brand new unreleased tracks will be recorded at Coalition Studios in Toronto, Ontario so stay tuned for the release of a brand new single by the end of the year!  We will be finishing recordings in December, and you can expect a brand new studio album at the start of 2012.  Cheers everyone!  Rock on!!!

Don't miss TIMEGIANT live at the Bovine Sex Club Wednesday. Nov. 23rd!
