    I met my girlfriend at City And Colour in Auckland, 2012 at the Albert Town Hall, I was 17. We saw him again in Wellington a handful of years later. Now I'm 26 and we're engaged, Dallas' music has been a staple for our whole relationship - any time he's playing in a city nearby, you can bet we'll be there - thanks for the tunes ♥️🇨🇦

    The first time I ever heard City and Colour, I was 2 or 3 weeks into a 9 month deployment in Afghanistan and a friend gave me this CD - he said nothing other than "listen to this!" It became my solace, my joy, my escape from the "Little Hell" and changed and influenced what music I listened to, then and ever since. It 'IS' all about the moment, because that is all you have - this moment in time and space.
    And in many ways this became the soundtrack to my war! Who would've thought?
    Thank you Dallas - forever and a day!

    This album introduced me to music. I was 11 years old and my brother was playing ‘weightless’ in the other room. I burst in and demanded to know who it was. Made me pick up the guitar and find my life passion. Thank you so much Dallas!

    Gosh I can't describe how "city and colour" music helped me out. And still do.
    I rarely saw somebody sing as Dallas sing, it seems to me he always put all his heart on it.
    Knowing I'm not alone feeling what I was feeling helped me so much. If Dallas at some point you read this, thank you so much for sharing your talent and emotions with us

    I feel like we all have those one or two bands that we can go back to any time day or night, and they just keep getting better and better. Dallas is that one artist for me. Top of my list since I first heard ‘Save your scissors’ nearly 20 years ago. Still remember hearing it for the first time. I was pulling into the Walmart parking lot with my girlfriend (now my wife of 20 years). It just hit me, I couldn’t turn the car off.. i just sat in awe of that voice and the sound.. to this day City & Colour is still my all time favourite. I also love the fact he’s from Ontario, like myself (London area).
    It’s been such a pleasure going through my life with his music by my side.
    I hope one day I can just shake this man’s hand and thank him for all the great music he’s given us. A true Canadian legend!

    My soon to be wife got me into you very early in our relationship, I come from a strictly metal background and was quite reluctant at first, but you’ve quickly become a staple of ours for road trips, and one of your songs will more than likely be our song for our wedding. Thank you for everything you do, we’ll see you in October! 🍁🍂

    This album came out the day I met my high school girlfriend. I was so excited when it came out. We listened to the whole thing that night and it had a big hand in us falling for each other. It ended up being a soundtrack to that summer and the background to a lot of great memories.
    Thanks for the great music Dallas. All time favorite artist.

    When AlexisOnFire came on Much Music, we knew it was going to be a fun loud video. Bonus was hearing Dallas sing the choruses. Then C&C came out with 'Save Your Scissors' and it was amazing from the start. Each album matured and some took me longer to get into but they all hold a different part of history. Thankful to have been along for the ride and can't wait for what the future holds!
