Event Description

. Saturday, August 11th IMU presents The GRIZZ, MY PET LION, JOYCE ISLAND & CINDERPOP @ The Railway Club, 579 Dunsmuir . Doors 9pm / Purchase advance tickets online @ http://www.imuproductions.com/tix

The GRIZZ sprang to life from the ashes of a cancelled jam session of ...another Vancouver band, The Sicks. With a penchant for getting really high and embarking on mind-expanding space jams, the power trio has been hard at work writing material, honing their sound and getting ready to rock. They've also recently made the decision to be really loud. http//www.myspace.com/thegrizzband

JOYCE ISLAND - Lisa Joyce's stripped down approach has its roots in her love of beat poetry, mod music & fashion, old school country crooners, kick-ass rhythm & blues, psychedelic rock, and all things East Van! Mixed with her love of vintage guitars, red wine, kitty cats, Morocco, India & pretty dresses, her style approaches an emotionally charged, uniquely-vibed style that she can call her own. http//www.joyceisland.ca

MY PET LION - With ambient textures, catchy hooks and a fantastic live show, My Pet Lion is a force to be reckoned with. A powerhouse group that challenges the conventional boundaries of todays pop and folk music, their music is enhanced by diverse lyrics and melodic surprises. http//www.mypetlion.ca

CINDERPOP - Don't miss Cinderpop as they play songs from their new album "Manic Sparkles"! Cinderpop play inventive, harmony-drenched, guitar-driven songs that range from orch-pop and space rock to bouncy Beatlesque power pop. Having performed with artists such as Stereolab and Sloan and featuring alumni of The Salteens, Moev & SK Robot, their eclectic sound combines free-floating vocals with dreamy melodies and pulsing guitars to great effect. http//www.cinderpop.com
