Pantomime by Lily Frost in episode 308 of CTV’s Robson Arms.

Contact combine the energy of house, rock, break-beats, and dub into intense live and recorded performances.  Formed in 2001 amidst Toronto’s energetic club and bar scenes and motivated out of a shared interest in dance oriented music, a sound developed quickly for the group.  The band completed its second recording ‘Dollar Empire’ in the fall of 2003. With connections to both dance and rock scenes, Contact can rely on a mixed and vibrant crowd, giving partygoers a chance to directly witness and participate in the creation of the evening’s music.
