A Trew Holiday Gift is a four song digital EP that was released in 2011. It was included as a free bonus for anyone buying The Trews' Hope and Ruin album from the band's online store. The EP featured the Christmas song "Coming Home". Lead singer/rhythm guitarist Colin MacDonald spoke about the song in a December 2011 interview with The Casket, a weekly newspaper published in Antigonish, Nova Scotia (The Trews' hometown):
"Peace Of Mind" was the first single drawn from The Grapes Of Wrath's second album, Treehouse (1987). It was also the first single to chart for the Kelowna, BC band, peaking at #56 on the Canadian RPM chart.

I originally wanted to do a full tab of the Spoons' "Arias & Symphonies", but I'm in the middle of doing a tab and I'm already committed to the next one, so rather than have the part I've done so far sit around gathering dust, I figure I'll post it to the riff section. Maybe I'll get a tab of the whole song done sometime. It's my favourite Spoons song.
"Arias" was, of course, a big hit for the band in 1982, the highest charting single of their career (#18). It was the title track of their second album, also released in 1982. Tabbed here is the Intro.

The song "68 Hours" appears on National Velvet's 1988 self-titled debut album. Released as a single/video in 1989, the track earned the band a CASBY award ("Canadian Artists Selected By You") from Toronto alt-rock radio station CFNY.
