Nukem Nice distill their love of blues, rock and ska to create a unique style of their own, blending electrifying guitar with a melodic rhythm section. A force to be reckoned with, a style you can’t miss, their stage presence is next to none, infused with a raw, exciting energy that turns first time listeners into fans at every show. http://www.nukemnice.com GOLD STARS ARE FOR SUCKERS - Featuring former members of Waltz Darling and The Town Pants, the Gold Stars met in a local rehearsal space for an impromptu jam session where the music started to formulate and flow at a rapid pace. Their music is fresh and vibrant through exploration of diverse influences including Pixies, The Ramones and The Damned. http://www.myspace.com/goldstarsareforsuckers COLOURSURROUND - Formed by three strung-out corporate dudes in suits who desperately needed an outlet, Coloursurround creates escapist music inspired by otherworldly bands such as Pink Floyd, Stone Roses, My Bloody Valentine, Smashing Pumpkins, Dandy Warhols, Radiohead and Jeff Buckley. http://www.myspace.com/thecoloursurround The LIQUOR KINGS are a dynamic Vancouver rock band with notoriously entertaining live shows and a powerhouse brand of high energy rock & roll. Together they collectively bring decades of performance and musical experience to the table to produce a fun, fast paced, no holds barred sound that encourages audiences to get up and party like they mean it! http://www.theliquorkings.com
