Song:All Over You
Album:No Really, I'm Fine
The Spill Canvas started as a solo recording project for Nick Thomas. He turned it into a band when he signed with Sire Records for the 2007 album No Really, I'm Fine. Thomas is from Sioux Falls, SD. He was a member of Nodes of Ranvier. Thomas was interested in recording pop music similar to Dashboard Confessional. So he started recording as The Spill Canvas and he released a couple of albums on 111 Records. He recorded the first album himself. But for the 2005 album One Fell Swoop, he brought in Dan Ludeman on guitar, Scott McGuire on bass and Joe Beck on drums. He did this mostly for touring. 111 suggested to Sire Records that they should sign the band. The 2007 album No Really, I'm Fine was The Spill Canvas' major label debut. It was produced by Everclear producer Neal Avron. McGuire was replaced by Landon Heil. They toured to support the album. But there were no hit singles. So things didn't work out with Sire and The Spill Canvas seemed to disband. The album Gestalt was released in 2012 on Thomas' own label. And it looks like Thomas returned to recording solo. Thomas released a solo album in 2014 and he toured as The Nick Thomas Band. That is how he is known today though he has revived The Spill Canvas recently. A new EP has just been released and they are touring to support it. Here's the video for All Over You by The Spill Canvas.
