WHISKEY CHIEF - On a warpath of instrumental funk, rock and jazz fusion, Whiskey Chief leaves behind a wake of awe with their cascading melodies and high energy stage presence. The combined powers and sounds of ripping guitar, flailing keyboard, sweet trumpet and booming trombone are backed by a rhythm section that knows each other inside and out, inspiring audiences to dance, sing and lose their mind. http://www.facebook.com/whiskeychief

The HARVEST mixes punk ethics, DIY personality and genuine passion for great music in a variety of styles from hard rock to blues and ska. Their influences are wide and varied from the Ramones and Sublime to No Doubt and Motley Crue, alternating elements of soul, rock, reggae, funk and percussive glam. http://www.theharvestrocks.com

WHITEY - Delivering the goods in BC since February of 2001, Whitey has been charging dance floors and festivals across the country since 2005. With an EP, two full-lengths, and a documentary/live DVD in their library, this group from Chilliwack/Vancouver BC is well experienced. Their style, incorporating everything from Funk to Latin to Blues, offers something for everyone in an extremely energetic live show. http://www.myspace.com/whiteycanada

HASTINGS is an original five-piece Vancouver-based band specializing in a unique, danceable mix of classic funk, pop, rock and reggae styles. Looking forward while respecting the past, their tight, emotional and energetic live shows are an organic expression of the Lotus-land lifestyle we enjoy on the West Coast. http://www.reverbnation.com/hastings
