HOLLOW TWIN:
Hollow Twin are a 5-piece Canadian Indie Rock band from Vancouver, Canada. With strong influence from 1960s pop and rock. The band formed in 2015 as a duo comprised of Becky Wosk and Emmalee Watts. In 2023, Emmalee took a step back from the band and Alex Smith (Dead Soft, Loans) stepped in as Becky’s partner. Levi Bakker (Keys), Daniel Sparrow (Bass) and Dean Disanjh (Drums) Joined soon after.
The new lineup of members formed from a collection of old friends who met in high school and at punk shows in Chilliwack/Abbotsford as teens and who all just couldn't get enough Fleetwood Mac and The Pixies.
DARING GREATLY:
Daring Greatly, a heartfelt rock ensemble, came into being in 2014 amidst the vibrant atmosphere of Calgary, Alberta. Founded by the Croome brothers, Patrick and Liam, along with percussionist Brayden Tario, the group's origin story is marked by a profound connection to their Canadian heritage. Following an early journey of exploration, the band's path led them across landscapes before finding their musical haven in the city of San Diego. Over the span of nine transformative years, they've artfully crafted albums that not only embrace their Canadian roots but also intricately weave together the tapestry of American rock and country influences, resulting in a truly unique and captivating soundscape.
HYAENAS:
Embodying the energy and ferocity of their animal namesake, Hyaenas is an Indie Alt Pop band “boasting stellar musicianship, meaningful songwriting, incredible talent, and a unique sound that excels.” (Great Dark Wonder) Their songs are written through a queer feminist lens that explore all facets of Human Nature while drawing inspiration from 80’s icons The Go-Go’s to modern day Indie darlings The Beaches, and synth-pop band Metric.
