Kara Keith was front person for synth-pop band Falconhawk, until a 2005 bus accident tore the band apart while they were on tour. Since that time Keith has been voraciously writing and performing, both solo and with various artists such as beat-miester Diego Medina. She is currently an artist in residence at The Banff Centre for the arts where she is writing and arranging original pop music for her and her band, Your Dignity.

Keith has completed an EP and will be releasing it in the New Year under The Saved By Radio record label. The five song recording features songs describing the Calgary landscape and the feeling of discontent she experiences as an outspoken woman in a money-loving, conservative climate.

Also heard, Jane Vain & The Dark Matter, C'mon Baby Say Bang Bang:

From somewhere beneath the swelling strings and synths, the angular guitars and pulsating beats, cleaves the voice of Jamie Fooks of Jane Vain & the Dark Matter. In early 2003, Fooks started writing songs by her self in her basement apartment, to deal with the remaining demons of a reckless adolescence. Somewhat deterred by an open mic night that ended in tears, Fooks was encouraged to continue performing by the support of friends, and the interest of current guitar player Dillon Whitfield (of Raccoon). With the addition of Whitfield's haphazard guitar playing, the foundation of Jane Vain & the Dark Matter was laid.
