Event Description

. Saturday, September 26th IMU presents TROPHY WIFE CD Release Party w/ The UNKNOWN SOLDIERS ~ A Celebration Of The Doors & GUITARSENAL @ PUB 340, 340 Cambie Street . Doors 9pm / Purchase advance tickets online @ www.imuproductions.com

TROPHY WIFE put the mental back in instrumental, combining shredding guitar solos, funk bass, Latin rhythms and jazz-classical piano into a contagious blend that has garnered fans at venues like The Roxy, Media Club, Buffalo Club and Columbia. Comprised of Louie Anyos, the most unsung guitar hero on the planet, Darryl Greer on bass, the funkiest white boy on the planet, and the hairiest, most rocking drummer on the planet, Pablo Stolowicz, Trophy Wife is prog-rock in it's most virtuosic and shamelessly entertaining form. Foregoing a singer to steal all the glory for themselves, Trophy Wife aims to dazzle the ear, please the eye, move the ass, melt the face and do other unmentionable things to every other body part you can think of. http://www.myspace.com/trophywifeband (11:30pm -12:45am)

The UNKNOWN SOLDIERS come amazingly close to replicating the music of The Doors note for note while capturing their raw energy through each band member's interpretation, combining to deliver a groovy reproduction of a live Doors show that keeps audiences in a head-bobbing, toe-tapping trance. Their singer's Morrison-esque look, vibe and baritone voice combine with swirling organs and deft musicianship to captivate and transcend time and place, allowing audiences to be transported back in time to experience a taste of live shows that are now a part of rock mythology. http://www.theunknownsoldiers.info (9pm-11pm)

GUITARSENAL's heavy instrumental rock sound is influenced by classic hard rock bands such as Black Sabbath, Motorhead, Metallica, Pantera, Jimi Hendrix, Slayer, Led Zeppelin, Alice in Chains, Nirvana & AC/DC. Corrupted by metal and turning to guitar to express his creativity, founding member Kevin Wood found himself some willing participants in his dark muse. Come on out and find yourself uncontrollably banging your head in time to the one and only Guitarsenal! http://www.myspace.com/guitarsenalmusic (1am-2am)

Reviews

Unknown Soldiers (Doors Tribute)

When the band hit the stage I had to catch my breath. The resemblance between Pete Bowman and Jim Morrison is rather scary. It isn’t only visual, but vocal! You could really believe you were at a Doors gig. Bowman is a rare performer, he ...
