The Unicorns are an indie-pop band from Montreal, Canada. Formed in December 2000 by Nicholas Thorburn (stage name Nick "Neil" Diamonds, as well as a host of other aliases) and Alden Penner (stage name, Alden Ginger; Elvis Presley's fiancee when he died was Ginger Alden) . Since then they have also been joined by drummer Jamie Thompson (stage name J'aime Tambeur) and Max Groadie ("the American Roadie, ne Bill Horwood"). Their second album Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone?, strangely released on the Avant Garde label Alien8, has received reviews praising it for its innovative melodies and lyrics. They have been touring constantly since late 2003, initially in support of fellow Canadian band Hot Hot Heat.
