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

The INTRUDERS are a rock and roll band. They dig Delta & Chicago blues, 60s garage rock, southern rock, British Invasion, acid-rock and early punk.After a summer of writing, touring, and playing festivals around the interior, they moved to Vancouver and have just finished recording their new LP 'Half Cut' at The Farm Studios. The Intruders are geared up for bringing some real rock and roll to Vancity! http://www.myspace.com/intrudersofficial

BARNABY JONES - No, it’s not an obscure '70s TV show revival, nor the handsome foil off Frisky Dingo, but Vancouver's own Barnaby Jones offers catchy, up-tempo melodic rock with elements of funk, soul and an inherent sense of humour. "Some local bands still have a ways to go, but Barnaby Jones has found it." - BC Local News http://www.myspace.com/barnabyjonesmusic

NUKEM NICE is a hard-working four piece original rock band. Their style can be described as a blend of classic rhythm n' blues mixed with modern hard rock. Each band member's distinctive styles combine to create a truly unique sound. The band's overall purpose is to deliver a pure musical experience and to perform raw, high-energy live shows. http://www.myspace.com/nukemnice
