Certainty

Certainty (formerly known as Hindsight) was a grunge/alternative outfit formed by Brent McSwiggan and Jj Sorenson in mid 2013. Starting with a 3 song EP “Unwind”, the band began playing locally around the Ontario scene. Over the years the band went through several member changes and did a rebrand under the name “Certainty”. In 2017, they released their second EP titled “Tearing Me Apart”. In 2019, they released their first LP “Temporary Love”. There has been no indication that the band has broken up but appears to be on hiatus.
