Sweet Thing was a Canadian alternative rock band based in Toronto who have been signed to EMI Music Canada since 2008.
[3] Bassist Morgan Waters, guitarist Nick Rose, and drummer Tyler Kyte all had acting careers in Canada prior to the formation of Sweet Thing.
[3] They cite such influences as The Beatles, The Band, Stevie Wonder, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Michael Jackson, Sloan, and Ted Leo.
[6] Billboard wrote that the album "is full of chiming guitars and chugging rhythms, recalling other guitar-based groups searching for a danceable groove like Franz Ferdinand.
"[1] Critic Ben Rayner of the Toronto Star wrote, " 'Lazy Susan' and 'Lorraine' prance like Spoon after a '70s soft-rock bender, while 'Winter Night' makes a run for the children-of-Coldplay club and succeeds with a smashingly universal and emotive girly-boy chorus.
