VENICE QUEEN are a 4-piece rock band from Richmond whose inspiration is derived from countless different groups and styles, with each song naturally sounding different from the rest. While inspired by bands like Alice in Chains, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Stone Temple Pilots, Deftones and Queens of the Stone Age, they refuse to pinpoint themselves to a specific genre other than to what sounds pleasing to their ears and hopefully to others! www.myspace.com/venicequeenband

FREEWILL - Rising out of the Vancouver music scene, Freewill believe in creating timeless music for themselves and their growing audience. Their music blends the deep roots of classic blue collar rock 'n' roll with edgy, passionate vocals and funky bass runs. The sound is straightforward and to the point. They are a fun, dirty guitar-driven, bass thumpin, sweet soul rock 'n' roll band. The Rock 'N' Roll Roadshow is a series of live shows developing around town at various venues with a consistent theme of bringing a good' ol party to the people. www.freewillband.com

TROPHY WIFE put the mental back in instrumental, combining shredding guitar solos, funk bass, Latin rhythms and jazz-classical piano into a contagious blend that has garnered fans at venues like The Roxy, Media Club, Buffalo Club and Columbia. Comprised of Louie Anyos, the most unsung guitar hero on the planet, Darryl Greer on bass, the funkiest white boy on the planet, and the hairiest, most rocking drummer on the planet, Pablo Stolowicz, Trophy Wife is prog-rock in it's most virtuosic and shamelessly entertaining form. Foregoing a singer to steal all the glory for themselves, Trophy Wife aims to dazzle the ear, please the eye, move the ass, melt the face and do other unmentionable things to every other body part you can think of. www.myspace.com/trophywifeband
