BIG JOHN BATES has caught the attention of Quentin Tarantino and Jello Biafra by spinning dark cabaret, rustic blues and alternative country into a sound that can be described as Americana Noir. With over 1000 live shows under his belt, John's gruff baritone and blues-driven Gretsch mixes with bandmate Brandy Bones' unhinged soprano and spell-binding presence, their compelling stage chemistry and blinding intensity riveting audiences throughout North America and Europe. http://www.bigjohnbates.com
JAPANESE COWBOY - Renowned for spawning ingenious creations of bad taste and dizzying chaos, Japanese Cowboy definitively delivers the innovative meta-rock stylings of WEEN. Ween's incredible musical diversity, reckless experimentation and cheeky humour has traversed almost every genre in existence, brilliantly blended with genuine rock'n'roll excitement. http://facebook.com/japanesecowboyband
The MILK PIPES - Sounding like a '63 Impala comin' sideways around a corner on two wheels, The Milk Pipes always drop the hammer on their original tunes with a joyful and reckless abandon. Tube amps and classic guitars slash against the solid punch of a rhythm section born to serve the song while keys and ukes underpin the whole cacophony with delicious counter melodies. http://www.themilkpipes.ca
SONS OF DAUGHTERS builds a shared love for gritty, southern, whisky-slinging blues into undeniable songwriting chemistry showcasing the talents of Chrystal Leigh, frontwoman for Dave Ogilvie’s industrial pop hybrid project Jakalope & Jimmy Thow, former frontman for Vancouver hard rock band Machines. Their music offers swampy riffs, haunting melodies, fireside storytelling and refreshingly candid vocals. http://www.sonsofdaughters.com
In the Railway's Caboose:
DEVIL IN THE WOOD SHACK is a six-piece acoustic band with unapologetic honesty and more intrigue than a well told story! Their members hail from opposite ends of the country, forging a gypsy, western, pirate punk sound that's raw and untamed, straight from hell riding on drunken angel wings. http://www.devilinthewoodshack.com
The ALMIGHTY PLAYERS featuring Natalie Von Rotsburg deliver a mix of rock'n'roll, blues, jazz fusion music that will keep you dancing, singing and shouting. http://www.facebook.com/Iampaintedlady
SWANK delivers an unholy alliance of rock, country, soul, gospel, blues and punk styles that go together like moonshine and mason jars, preaching and sinning, Vegas and vice. A featured artist at the 2010 Winter Olympics, their glorious mayhem has earned them a loyal fan base on both sides of the Atlantic in the wake of regular hometown shows and two memorable tours of the UK and Ireland. http://www.facebook.com/iwantswank
