The GET DOWN - Veering from skanky reggae to folky blues, heavy metal to punk and country twang, The Get Down have established a deep footprint on the Vancouver indie scene via two critically acclaimed albums and relentless gigging. With each member bringing original songs and different influences to the table, their eclectic stylings have attracted a diverse fan base that never knows what's coming next. "A breathtakingly exuberant batch of tunes, switching with apparent ease between buoyant indie pop, soulful alt-country and banjo-boosted hill-country folk" - Georgia Straight http://www.myspace.com/thegetdown4

The FILM INDUSTRY - Combining the liberating power of rock and a hypnotic approach derived from electronic roots, with a zest of jazz for good measure, The Film Industry makes your head nod with their trippy groove-oriented music. Featuring former members of OCEANIC, their electronic groove based music is a fusion of ambient guitars, samples and keyboard textures and take you on an irresistible journey of sound! http://www.myspace.com/thefilmindustry

The ARMADILIETTANTES - Energetic, intense and intriguing, The Armadilettantes are a perfect blend of rock and melancholy. Their music is tireless, moody, playful and made for dancing. "This is one local band that promises to satisfy many musical cravings." - Backstage Vancouver http://www.myspace.com/armadilettantes
