HistoryBlurtonia was formed in May 1999 to play live shows in support of Blurton's self-released debut Adventures in the Kingdom of Blurtonia.[1] The band began performing in Toronto, including at the Rivoli and at[2] Humble & Fred Fest at Fort York,[3] The album was co-produced by Daryl Smith. Jon McCann played drums in the original line-up. It was later re-released by Sonic Unyon.[4] In addition to Adventures, Blurtonia released a self-titled album on Grenadine Records in 2002.[5][6] At the time, the band was composed of Ian Blurton on guitar and vox, Al Kelso (ex-The Dinner Is Ruined) on guitar, Randy Curnew on drums, Sam De Medeiros bass, and Brendan Canning, Kevin Drew on bass.[7] McCann left the band to play with Guided By Voices full-time. The band made a cross-Canada tour in September 2002 with Eric Larock on bass in place of Medeiros.[8][9] In 2006, Blurtonia released The Survivalists.[10] Blurton later joined the band C'Mon, and worked as a recording and producing engineer at Chemical Sounds in Toronto.
