ELEPHANT TRAIN has been around for nearly two years, gaining a respectable following by playing shows throughout Vancouver. Their sound touches on a wide variety of genres and styles, combining funky licks that make the girls cry with a solid, lickity-split havoc that brings out the boogie in people. Quickly gathering speed with a new album of studio recordings, Elephant Train delivers a strong, enthusiastic live show full of funky, original rock. http://www.myspace.com/elephanttrain

The UNKNOWN CULPRITS are a Toronto-based power grunge trio with jazz and blues leanings who are quickly building a growing fanbase all across Canada with their uniquely fresh sound and explosive live shows. With incredible instrumental skill and powerful, yet melodic vocals, the Culprits' high-energy performances and catchy hooks constantly win over even the most diverse crowds. http://www.myspace.com/UnknownCulprits

The INTRUDERS are a rock and roll band. They dig Delta & Chicago blues, 60s garage rock, southern rock, British Invasion, acid-rock and early punk. After a summer of writing, touring, and playing festivals around the interior, they moved to Vancouver and have just finished recording their new LP 'Half Cut' at The Farm Studios. The Intruders are geared up for bringing some real rock and roll to Vancity in 2010! http://www.myspace.com/IntrudersOfficial


The MILK PIPES always drop the hammer on their original tunes with a joyful and reckless abandon. Three years, over 50 shows on, and with a new album almost in the can, The Pipes are having the kind of good time that can only come from within. They are a band of brothers who always share their beer... until it's the last one, then it's war. You'll hear them coming so stomp your feet or get the hell out of the way. http://www.myspace.com/TheMilkPipes
