Our song “Lookin’ All The Time” was selected to be on Kelowna Radio Station K96.3’s first compilation album. There will be a showcase of most of the bands that are going to be on that compilation at The Habitat in Kelowna on Saturday, November 27^th. The catch is that the only way to get tickets to see the show is through the radio station or from the bands.

So this is the first segment of "What Are The Decoys Listening to?.....". This will be an ongoing feature on the site so check back regularly for the latest updates!

This Week is Lead Guitar Mastermind Jarrett Boyetchko (October 14th, 2010):

My albums i'm digging right now are:

1. Deathcab For Cutie: Transatlanticism (2003)
Songs: Transatlanticism, The Sound Of Settling.

2. Muse: Showbiz (1999)
Songs: Uno, Sunburn, Unintended.

3. Vampire Weekend: Vampire Weekend (2008)

Hello Everyone,

The world of Matt Stanley and The Decoys has been a busy one over the past couple of months, and we don’t want to keep you in the dark any longer! So here’s what we have been up to!

Hey Everybody,

We have lots of news coming your way over the next little bit (including a new webpage) but we just wanted to fill you in on a contest we’re in.

It’s called the Freshtrax contest and it’s put on by Snowseekers. Basically WE NEED YOUR VOTE! The top six bands get a chance to play at the VANCOUVER SNOW SHOW, a bonus gig in Whistler, and exposure on TV through Snowseekers!
