Sloan (2)

Sloan is a Toronto-based rock quartet originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, active 1991 to the present.

The group was formed in 1991 when Chris Murphy (3) and Andrew Scott (3) met at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (NSCAD) in Halifax; Patrick Pentland and Jay Ferguson (2) joined soon thereafter. In 1992, the band created their own record label, Murderecords (to release records by Sloan and other Halifax-area bands) and released their debut, "Peppermint EP".
