Arts & Crafts, the reputable Canadian indie boutique responsible for introducing Broken Social Scene, Feist, and many others to the world, have opened an office in Mexico City. Perhaps in an effort to take over the world, the label will begin by releasing A&C classics in Mexico, and likely sign some artists of their own [might I suggest the very BSS-friendly, Dave Newfeld-produced Chikita Violenta ed].
Arts & Crafts Mexicos inaugural releases will include Broken Social Scenes You Forgot It In People and Broken Social Scene, Kevin Drews Spirit If , Brendan Cannings Something For All Of Us , Los Campesinos! Hold On Now, Youngster , The Stills Oceans Will Rise, Constantines Kensington Heights, and Stars In Our Bedroom After The War. Dont worry, though this isnt a General Motors style shut-down. The Canadian A&C office in Toronto will remain fully functional.
