Whether they are opening at Wembley Arena while on tour with Britain’s famed rockers, Status Quo, or playing the Legendary Horseshoe Tavern on Toronto’s Queen Street, THE NORTH is a band crowds love to hear. Bernadette's trademark vocals are backed by talented musicians/songwriters Neal Lyons (guitar), Tom Hodgins (bass), Tom Kiskunas (lead guitar) and Neal’s younger brother, Greg (drums).

THE NORTH, a self-described country-stained rock ‘n roll band hailing from King City, take pride in the fact their music is not easily pigeon-holed. This summer the band recorded 12 new, original tracks in the U.K. designed to appeal to a wide audience. Now, as the band performs live, fans respond to Bernadette’s sultry, bluesy tones in “What’s My Name?” and appreciate the country spirit of “Heartland.” Full band backup on the whimsical “No Money Anthem” sets a different, fuller vocal sound and “Radio‘s” lyrics are ironic given its deliberate commercial sound.

THE NORTH just released its self-produced, six song EP, entitled “The Purley Sessions,” and will make a full-length version available on iTunes in the late fall. THE NORTH invites you to listen to their songs or, better still, see them live at an upcoming gig (www.WeAreTheNorth.com). Stay posted for several big announcements coming soon.
