Tough Age heads to Hogtown

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      Vancouver is losing a couple of its busiest garage rockers, as Tough Age members Jarrett K. and Penny “Agamemnon” Clark are moving to Toronto.

      Clark has been working in Ottawa for the last couple of months, and she and Jarrett will head to Hogtown in October. Despite the distance, Tough Age isn’t breaking up. “I’m not starting a new band or anything; we’re still working on this,” frontman Jarrett told the Straight. “We’re just going to do a lot of trips back and forth.”

      Tough Age has already completed half of its sophomore album with producer Felix Fung at Little Red Sounds. The band will complete the sessions next month, with the release scheduled for early next year. Jarrett and Clark will say goodbye to Vancouver when Tough Age plays a going-away show on October 17 at a to-be-announced location.

      “It’s going to be a ton-of-bands, all-night-blowout sort of thing,” Jarrett promised.
