Nine Mile was a Canadian indie rock band based in Toronto. Founded in 2001, the band's original members were D'Ari Pouyat (vocals & guitar), Trevor Norris (vocals & guitar), Joshua Cowan (drums) and Dave Matthews (bass & vocals). The founding members recorded one album together entitled Run. During the recording of this album, percussionist Dave Tolley was hired as a session musician to play hand percussion. Tolley became a permanent member of the group shortly thereafter. The original line-up performed frequently for two years and embarked on one Canadian national tour before dissolving. Trevor Norris, Josh Cowan, and Dave Matthews all left the band amicably. Shortly thereafter, Tolley moved to Boston to study at Berklee College of Music. Nine Mile's primary singer/songwriter D'Ari Pouyat remained in Toronto. D'Ari and Dave continued working on material, sharing songs and ideas via the internet.
Nine Mile evolved as a collaboration of singer/songwriter D'Ari Pouyat and percussionist Dave Tolley. Touring mainly as a duo and releasing the band's second album Close To Touch in 2003, Pouyat and Tolley performed frequently at festivals and concerts throughout Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States between 2003 and 2006.
In 2007, after one of many international tours, the duo took a break. While still making Nine Mile cameos, Dave became the full-time drummer for Xavier Rudd, a longstanding friend to both bandmates. Meanwhile Pouyat left Toronto and relocated to the country. This change of location and finding inspiration in several Canadian songwriters, including Brian MacMillan and Melissa Larkin, influenced the next Nine Mile record. In 2009, Country Porno Electric Fireplace was released.
Over the years, Nine Mile has toured internationally, sharing stages with The Black Keys, Joel Plaskett, G. Love and Special Sauce, Gomez, Xavier Rudd, Cowboy Junkies, Blackalicious, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Sarah Harmer, Donavon Frankenreiter and Pete Murray.
Touring partners have included: Xavier Rudd, Donavon Frankenreiter, Blackalicious, Pete Murray, Ben Harper and more.
Nine Mile is signed to Dreadrock Records, a self-owned indie label. Dreadrock has licensed Nine Mile's recordings to Liberation/Warner Australia, and Entak/Universal Japan.
