Peterborough Musicfest is thrilled to welcome Metric to Del Crary Park on July 17, 2024, as part of its 37th season overlooking Little Lake. Formed in 1998 by Emily Haines and Jimmy Shaw, Metric moved from Toronto to New York, joining drummer Joules Scott Key and bassist Joshua Winstead in 2001/2002. They became central to NYC’s alt-rock scene with bands like LCD Soundsystem and The Strokes. Known for rejecting major label offers, Metric has released nine adventurous studio albums independently.
Their latest album, "Formentera II" (2023), continues their innovative legacy. Inspired by '80s synth-pop and new wave bands like New Order, Metric's eclectic sound features hits like “Monster Hospital” and “Gimme Sympathy.” They last played Peterborough in 2010, and Emily Haines' brother Tim Haines runs Blue Streak Records downtown. Metric is the first act announced for Musicfest's 2024 season, which runs from June 29 to August 17 with free concerts every Wednesday and Saturday night.
