STONE COLD CRAZY was formed by happy accident in August 2008 when UBC's Ubyssey newspaper requested the formation of a Queen tribute for their 90-year anniversary. The guys had so much fun dressing up and rocking out in character that they've decided to take their love of Queen off-campus and into the hearts and minds of Vancouver's 70s-centric rock fans! http://www.pauljhermann.com/StoneColdCrazy

GIRLS N ROSES are Vancouver's premier Guns N Roses tribute act. Formed in October 2007, the members of Girls N Roses bring various musical backgrounds, experience and influences to the music of GNR, putting on an incredible live show with all the rock n roll moxy you'd expect from the original! http://www.GirlsNRoses.com

SLY ALCHEMY is a non-traditional blues project formed by the members of Vancouver's Old Roger. The music is driven by experimental improvisation and draws influences from a variety of genres including blues, funk, psychedelia and jazz. The trio performs original pieces but excels in writing music in the moment, spontaneously creating unique, memorable experiences that audiences can remember as their own. http://www.myspace.com/SlyAlchemy

CRIMSON ROOTS -- This is the dawning of a great age, one where man and metal can live as one with rock as their foundation. Deep in this time was birthed a band. In the dying moments of '07, a young man entered a basement lair that would make the average man tremble. Hit by the soulful cry of a gleaming, radiant guitar and taken over by a driving, powerful beat, he plugged in his bass guitar with pure euphoria and screamed with all the love and hate within him. Showcasing an original blend of east coast hard party music and west coast psychedelia, three warriors pillaged the vaults of creativity within their minds, their intense passionate musical voyage spawned the heavy, groove-rockin juggernaut that is Crimson Roots. http://www.myspace.com/CrimsonRootsMusic
