Fast Romantics is a Canadian indie rock band based in Toronto, Ontario and originally formed in Calgary, Alberta.

[2] In 2008, Fast Romantics was one of the winners of the Xposure Contest hosted by Calgary alternative rock station X92.9/CFEX-FM,[3] and three songs appeared on the resultant compilation CD.

[6] Taking a detour from their national Canadian tour, the band was flown to New York City to perform at the music club CBGB (now occupied by Varvatos).

Songs from the album have appeared on numerous television shows including Shameless, Breaking In, Vampire Diaries, Pretty Little Liars, and One Tree Hill.

[11] Again produced by Howard Redekopp, the album's first single was "Funeral Song",[12] which eventually charted on national alternative rock radio.

Deciding to rebuild the band from scratch with Lewis, Angus added four new members in 2014, beginning with respected Toronto singer/songwriter Kirty as a multi-instrumentalist and singer.

"[21] Shortly after the appearance, in February 2017, the band officially announced that they had signed to Light Organ Records and would be releasing their long-awaited LP on April 28, 2017, titled "American Love.

The American election went bizarre and took over the Canadian one, everybody's obsession with social media hit some kind of peak, and suddenly everyone — everywhere — was talking about America.

"[23] Shortly after announcing a release date and record label for "American Love," the band went on whirlwind tour as the opening act for Said the Whale, playing 15 shows in 19 days.
