41st and Home formed in 2008 when science students Garth Covernton and Thom Kolb found a cello in Garth’s garage. Neither knew how to play it, but that wasn’t really important: what started at that point was a fascination with all things epic and orchestral, one that saw the band transition from an after school hobby into a rising act in the Canadian music scene. With violinist Sejal Lal, pianist Patrick Fiore and bassist George Knuff the group has maintained a DIY attitude towards making a name for themselves; they are their own recording engineers, management and publicists and intend to continue this way.
