Ottawa’s FIFTYMEN have released their brand new self-titled album to nationwide praise.
Vancouver’s Alex Hudson takes us on a flashback to the 1980′s with solid and likeable music with his experimental sound – dance-able songs, happy songs and sad songs. You should give it a listen and take it from there.
Hello Music Lovers!
Brrrr! I’m greeting you from a bitterly cold -30 Alberta, I hope it is warmer where you are! Yes, I’ve temporarily left BC to stay with my family this holiday season, but will be returning most likely in the new year. Despite the frigid temperatures, hearts are warm and homes are aglow with Christmas lights. To celebrate the season, I’ve written a Christmas song for the first time ever, which I recorded and mixed at home (for the first time ever). It’s a baby step towards more projects …
It is THE ELIXXXIRS’ sworn duty to get you moving faster than a prune juice smoothie. Since their start in 2005, the band has developed far beyond its original ska/reggae format, serving up an original and infectious mix of pop, rock, and punk. The Elixxxirs are a fixture on Vancouver’s live scene and they regularly tour Western Canada, building a reputation as capable hosts for the kind of night that shouldn’t be followed by any concrete plans.
Hey guys, I found this on a punk webzine. It seems it was written by Jan Quixote from the band the Shell Corporation in California. I think it has good advice for musicians. As a promoter I hardly ever encounter any problems with bands, Vancouver musicians are very educated and responsible, even when they are trashed. Pet peeve number one is the last minute cancellation. It sucks more than dog poo. Feel free to comment your opinions below.
Quick Wicked are a band from Brantford ON that have high energy, focus and concentration. It’s truly independent music at its finest. Categorically this band is on its own in the stadium. If you need a slot, they are progressive/hard rock/indie-rock band that have some of the best music I’ve heard this year. Produced by Quick Wicked and Hamilton’s Matt Gauthier (who also engineered, mixed and mastered the album). Part of the album was even recorded at the Gauthier house, as well as at B Town Sound in Burlington and at The Eggplant Collective in Toronto.
Vancouver- Some many music venues have closed over the years in Vancouver leaving our growing number of musicians with fewer places to perform. VanMusic and Charqui Grill are happy to announce that we have LIVE music suited for all ages at the restaurant located in 1955 Cornwall.

A versatile performer, composer and songwriter, Stephen has always felt music plays a vital part in life…
From his early weather-beaten busking days in Vieux Montreal to the new score for the hand-drawn, animated short film, “Terranaughts”, using children’s toys! Life experience and vivid imagination frame his story-driven songs and compositions. His musical sojourns have taken him across the continent from Halifax to Tijuana, performing anywhere from hostel to theatre, train to shuttle. He loves the impromptu camaraderie music brings. After his first sold-out “Live at the Bluebird Cafe” release, a no-holds-barred …
Quirky and a bit different… They’re prince and they’re pauper; outrageous and proper… they’re Stone Poets.
What began as a single songwriting session to write one song, developed into a weekly gathering of creative minds and a virtual song factory. Stone Poets have been described as “dark folk”… folk perhaps, because of the instrumentation: keyboard, two acoustic guitars and rich harmony laden vocals… dark perhaps, as the subject matter in their songs ventures into dangerous waters sometimes…
