Bio...
Formed in the spring of '96, URSA MAJOR uniquely combines midwestern guitar rock, modern power pop and poetic imagery. Following the release of the band's debut CD, Driven Deep, the track, Don't Turn Away was selected to appear on the 102.1 The Edge New Rock Search CD (1997). Appearances at Edgefest and Canadian Music Week followed as well as a distribution deal for South-East Asia.
URSA MAJOR's mix of power pop "crash" and soaring melody has drawn comparisons to such current groups as Tonic, Live and Matchbox 20. The band will showcase at Boston's NEMO Music Conference in early 1998.
