One of my favorite compilations is 2005's Sympathetic Sounds Of Montreal. The Sunday Sinners were my favorite new band that comp introduced me to.
As you can guess, The Sunday Sinners were from Montreal. They featured Jenna from The Del-Gators and Annie from Les Sexareenos. This is their demo. "Are You Sure" was on Sympathetic Sounds. "You Child", "Darlin'", and "Mama Didn't Raise No Fool" were released on a 7" by Perpetrator Records from New Zealand in 2006. At least some of these songs are covers. "Are You Sure" is originally a show tune from The Unsinkable Molly Brown but this song is based on the soul version by Aretha Franklin in 1961. It is possible all the songs are covers but I don't know.
The Sunday Sinners stayed active for a while but never released much more. They did another CD-EP with new songs in 2006 and then only a few comp tracks after that. They had at least some lineup changes. Former Mystery Girls guitarist Jordan joined the band, as well as eventually marrying Jenna. The two of them formed another band called Honey & Lies but they didn't record much.
