The Poles

The Poles

The Poles has been played on NTS in shows including Sara A, featured first on 28 June 2023. Songs played include C.N. Tower.

There are Multiple bands called The Poles:

1) South Korean band consisting of singer Daniel Kim of wave to earth, Lee Hwangje and Kim Kyungbae. They debuted on September 8th, 2017, with their first EP ‘From The Outset'. On February 23, 2024, it was announced that they will be promoting under the label wavy.

2) Short-lived Toronto punk band active in '76, fronted by visual artist Michaele Jordana Berman. Best known for iconic single "C.N. Tower b/w Prime Time" released in 1977 on Nimbus 9 records.

3) From Southeast Performer Magazine-December 2006 Issue--- North Carolina’s The Poles are a band determined to make new and innovative music — not by contriving a weird, new style of music but through the natural synthesis of elements drawn from their eclectic pool of influences. In The Poles’ world, guitars may riff away one moment and produce ambient, sustaining chords the next. Vocals may go from soaring crescendos to wallowing deadpan, and rhythms may transition from bouncy stop-start pulsations to slamming, hard rock madness. Showcasing a range on par with The Doors or Queen, The Poles’ latest EP, As Above, So Below, allows the world-at-large its first exposure to The Poles’ musical philosophy.

4) Brisbane band from 1979/80 who later moved to Sydney and released one single 'Over and Beyond and Through/Ha! Ha! Ha!'. Played the inner-city circuit with the likes of Laughing Clowns. Bassist Joe Borkowski was an early Saints photographer, and later played in Peter Milton Walsh's beautiful Out of Nowhere and the Apartments in 1984.
