Tooth Blackner is pleased to present Whitehorse w/ guests at the Jack Singer Concert Hall – April 16th, 2015 Whitehorse announces a new album, Leave No Bridge Unburned, with “Sweet Disaster,” a song that channels Bond themes and Sixties R&B with a slinky, stylized video to match. “Sweet Disaster” is a story about one rich man’s quest to send a couple to Mars. It’s fitting subject matter for Melissa McClelland’s first ever love song to Luke Doucet, and for a band described thus far as “space cowboy lovebirds” (Now Magazine, Toronto).
