us that Windsor's Sewing With Nancie have changed their name to The Reason. Their old website states "When Sewing With Nancie began it was way back in grade 9, 7 years ago. Ronson and I were 15 years old, and we needed a quick name for a battle of the bands… As we grew and matured we started hating the name." It also turns out they don't want to run into any legal problems with the "Sewing With Nancy" television show. With the name change comes a change in sound, the band has dropped a number of their old songs from their live show. The Reason will be touring Canada in support of their new EP which was produced Greg Taylor of Jersey and Brad Casarin of Somehow Hollow. Click below for their upcoming tour dates and look for their new website up on February 7th.
