"The Tragically Hip played a huge part in my life, especially my childhood. “Ahead By A Century” was one of the first songs I learned to play, mostly so I could show my brothers I was cool. They have such an impact on everyone in this country that when you cover one of their songs, even poorly, it garners you some kind of respect." —Dylan Menzie
