Ohbijou is SDFM’s new Featured Artist!
April 29th, 2010
Indie-pop sensation donates “Tour Song” to support clean water
The Swim Drink Fish Music Club has just launched Ohbijou as the Featured Artist for the month of May. Here’s what the band has to say:
We are very proud to be a part of the Swim Drink Fish Music Club, and to support the good work done by a growing number of dedicated Waterkeepers in Canada. Tour Song was inspired by our first trip as a band to the east coast, and a late night dip in the Bay of Fundy. It will forever remind us of summer adventuring and enjoying the good and golden things that are so easily taken for granted in this world. We are very pleased to have Tour Song counted among the many wonderful songs available to SDFM Club Members, who generously support the vital cause of preserving and restoring the heath of our lakes and waterways, and all things near and dear.
Happy swimming!

We LOVE this track. Here’s why:
Ohbijou’s ‘Tour Song’ is a perfect complement to the Swim Drink Fish Music Club” says Mark Mattson, Waterkeeper & President of Lake Ontario Waterkeeper. “It captures the spirit of travel, of the sea, and of moving towards a place worth being. That’s the life of the musician as well as the life of an environmentalist.
In addition to the featured songs, Swim Drink Fish Music Club membership provides other great material:
- new bonus tracks from Lameck Williams vs Harbour Sharks available now
- additional bonus tracks coming in May from Lady Hayes and The Mermaids
- episodes of Living At the Barricades, the weekly radio program produced by Lake Ontario Waterkeeper and broadcast around southern Ontario. Many of the Music Club members are frequent guests on the show.
- a made-for-Canada edition of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s Ring of Fire program, broadcast on Air America radio in the United States.

Every song has its story.
