One tigress, an MVP, a renaissance man and a 5-tool all-star. Damaged beyond repair and free to roam.
What has been made of them ...
"One minute they might be a snarling, drunken rock machine, the next a dreamy, quirky alt unit. Either way, the music stays fresh, which is why Toronto's Dearly Beloved is onto something."- Evan Davies, NOW Magazine
"The grit of old school punk, the guitars of the new rock revival and a touch of the Velvet Underground. A worthy addition to the indie scenester's collection."- Paul Budel, CHART
"Like a pack of junkies playing for their smack...hard-hitting, hook-heavy rock'n roll...A short and sweet set aided vocally by rock tigress Niva Chow."-Lorraine Carpenter, EXCLAIM!
"A vital indie rock record." - John Kendle, UPTOWN Magazine
"An artful and dynamic melodic rock unit combining elements of Higgins' past projects into a fresh, distinct new sound."- Chuck Molgat, PRAIRIE DOG Magazine
"People better start paying serious attention to Dearly Beloved. They just might be the most original rock band going in Toronto." -Erin Taylor, SCENE AND HEARD Magazine
Both Dearly Beloved albums, 2006's You Are The Jaguar and 2008's RepoRepoRepo are available at iTunes.

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov) Thank you for your friendship! Musical greetings from Munich/Germany! Feel free to download my music!
