KUSH is an intense and high energy band founded by Lowell Campbell, (lead vocals/bass) in 2006. Lead guitarist, Marinos Stratoplis, adds powerful guitar work while drummer, Jordan Myer, is working his way up to become one of the legends of drumming. The newest edition to Kush is the very talented Dave Campbell, Lowell's brother. With band infuences that include Metallica, Led Zepplin & S.T.P., Kush's sound is best described as rock with a metal edge. Add a touch of old school punk and you can better imagine this original independent sound. www.myspace.com/kushlived

COSMEDIC - Melodic, intense rockers hailing from the depths of Vancouver, Cosmedic have created a solid and original sound all their own. Their first single "Without Eyes" has irresistable guitar lines, pensive lyrics and a memorable chorus. Their magnetic, seductive sound comes to life with their powerful and passionate live shows, and their recently released EP "Love Hate Machine" confirms their talent: "The songs are quirky, yet immediately relatable. The hooks are strong, and the laconic, understated vocal approach is an appealing combination." -- Taxi www.myspace.com/cosmedic

The OUTLIERS sound is best described as a democratic roar, an eclectic offering from five musicians with often competing styles and influences from the past thirty years ranging from The Clash to The White Stripes. Ultimately, the band's diversity forms a cohesive and modern sound -- one that wagers its success and credibility on their common objective to redefine rock n' roll. www.myspace.com/theoutliers
