BLACK DOG - Electric, charged and explosive, Black Dog is bound to leave you speechless with their straight-up, no-holds barred portrayal of Led Zeppelin. This is not a bunch of middle-aged musicians playing Zeppelin songs: Black Dog is a band of musicians close to the actual age and look of the members of Led Zeppelin when they were in their prime. Based in Vancouver and featuring the members of Vancouver's Mad Shadow, Black Dog creates an accurate and mesmerizing portrayal of LED ZEPPELIN, from the band's wardrobe to their dynamic onstage presence, paying homage with emotion and realism to their powerful, unmistakable sound. Be transported back to when the baddest and best band in hard rock was tearing up the world! www.myspace.com/blackdogbc

The RADICALLY HIP is a 5 piece TRAGICALLY HIP Tribute Band that captures the spirit and the raw energy that has made the Hip the Canadian rock icons that they are today. Inspired by Gordon Downie's poetic prophetic insight combined together with the band's great musical prowess, The Radically Hip reaches for and hits those magical frenetic peaks that we've all come to love from The Hip. Proud to be Canadian, we invite you to come share our love for everything in life that is Hip! www.myspace.com/radicallyhip

LIKE A MARTYR showcase a freight train of roaring guitars, thunderous vocals and pulsating rhythms combined with shimmering harmonies, memorable melodies and the lost art of the guitar solo. Their versatile sound is influenced by the raw power of Motorhead, the stripped-down blues of Muddy Waters, the primal stomp of the White Stripes and the swagger and conviction of Bruce Springsteen. Like A Martyr is an anxiety-driven neurotic, striving for perfection, drinking and laughing all the while, thumping, clapping, rejoicing, staggering and stomping to their rightful place in the rock'n'roll mosaic. www.myspace.com/likeamartyr

An all-original band who strives to bring back the true meaning of rock 'n' roll, they deliver 70's-inflected modern hard rock that will have you shakin' your ass to their driving, bluesy tunes. With five members of varying musical backgrounds and tastes, Black Mondo Grass offers a truly original sound and experience, crafting together what is sure to be the new sound and face of rock... so hang on to your seats and get ready for the ride of a lifetime! www.myspace.com/blackmondograss
