Stalwart Sons

since circa 2009
Formed by Kevin Stebner in the dawning Albertan winter of 2009, Stalwart Sons waste no time. Stebner, formerly of the now legendary and much cherished "totheteeth/tothehilt" (Reluctant Recordings) had a long pedigree of loud and cathartic music in his past. After returning from a stint teaching in Korea, Stebner recuited Matt Learoyd on bass and Leejay Dunphy on drums to set down the musical ideas that had been too long brewing.

Wasting no time, the group pounded out 10 songs and entered the studio in March of 2010. The result was "Burn Dalights Like Torches" (Revolution WInter), the full-length LP soon dubbed "timeless" (FFWD Magzine). With the new LP in tow, Stalwart Sons headed out on a sucessful cross-Canada tour. With landmark shows at the Ghost Throats in Edmonton and at the Bart Records showcase at Calgary's Sled Island festival, the sons returned home tour-hardened and ready to take on the world.
