The Story:
“Henri Fabergé the Adorables began as an artistic response to the “sprawling indie collective” oeuvre prevalent in the early 2000s Toronto music scene. The Embassy truly became home to Fabergé in collaboration with a rotating cast of over thirty musicians, to experiment in collective musical creation and immersive performance. We played here once a month for two and a half years, and each show was more dangerous and saturated than the last. The Adorables revisited The Embassy to perform in honour of the bar’s tenth anniversary. “
-Henri Fabergé
Lyrics:
first Wednesday of the month and you’re all alone
you got no squishy body you can call on
behind stained steamy glass, we’ll be there …
ALL HAIL THE EMBASSY WE CALL HOME
