This week, we catch up with multi-instrumentalist, artist and composer Toby Driver of Kayo Dot as he prepares for a run of solo shows in Canada and the U.S. in August, including one in Ottawa next week. (details below). Toby discusses his recent move away from New York City, the conditions that generated his most recent solo record "They Are They Shield", and taking time away from music to focus on painting and video arts. Toby Driver plays a solo show at Pressed (750 Gladstone Avenue) with woodwind experimentalist this Jeremiah Cymerman on Tuesday, August 13.
