Event Description
Hard Drugs!http://www.myspace.com/harddrugs
On the night of his birthday party in 2006 it all became clear. Jeffry Lee was high on life and other substances when he hatched the idea for Hard Drugs. Hard Drugs was to be a rock opera. It provided the perfect solution to his domestic quandaries. A rock opera would provide Lee with the creative outlet he needed while requiring less touring, allowing him to spend more time with his soon-to-be-wife Jenni Nelson. Since then, it has spawned at least two bands, a concept album and a new life of it¹s own.
Weathered Pines!
http://weatheredpines.com/
Weathered Pines was formed in 2006 by lead vocalist and songwriter, Marissa Johnson (No Kids, Dizzy Eyes). The original line-up had Conrad Dykman on drums and Steve Matheson (Ghost House) on bass, who were later joined by Bryce Janssens (Lord Beginner) on lead guitar and, most recently, Cc Rose (Vancougar) on keys.
With influences such as Neil Young, Elvis Costello and Gram Parsons, Weathered Pines blends bottom-of-the-bottle country with a hint of rock ‘n’ roll grit and jangle. This has led them to be equally as likely to appear on a bill next to country sweethearts Carolyn Mark or Jenny Whitely as they are next to total rockers Vancougar or the Tranzmitors.
