Tops
Montreal soft-pop with a late-'70s AM-radio warmth and Jane Penny's unhurried delivery on top, with soft-focus songs that have sneaky staying power.

About Tops
Tops is an indie pop band from Montreal, QC, formed in 2011.
Tops are an indie pop band from Montreal, fronted by singer Jane Penny alongside guitarist David Carriere. Formed in the early 2010s, they emerged from the same Montreal scene as a number of other bands working outside the city's better-known noise and punk circles.
Their sound draws on soft rock and pop production of the late 1970s and early 1980s: clean guitar lines, unhurried tempos, warm keyboards and Penny's light, conversational vocals. The songs are generally short and melodic, with arrangements kept deliberately uncluttered.
