Science Fair turned 25 this year! Come and celebrate on Nov 2nd for a virtual concert. Hear the whole album andthe stories behind the songs.
November 2nd, 2024
4pm - 6pm
Science Fair was Emm's landmark album released in 1999 that contained the fan favourites "Stereochrome", "Good Riddance", "Serenade" and "Revenge". Recorded in a cottage on Lake Huron for $500, Science Fair outsold Emm's major label album, and paved the path for indie rock success in years to come. Gord Downie of the Tragically Hip wrote Emm a handwritten letter to express his love for the album and it also became the album that forged a friendship between Emm and Def Leppard frontman Joe Elliott, when Emm handed it to him backstage at a Bowie concert in Dublin.
Come and celebrate this special album with a virtual concert on November 2nd.
