** WINTERCOAST
Wintercoast originally began as folk duo, that has now has transformed into a full-fledged band. With line up changes and their 'Trees, Homes & Better Places' EP under their belt, the band steadily grew as a whole until finally coming into a sound of their own. Wintercoast currently consists of four members, each bringing their own background and expertise to create a delicious alternative folk/rock blend.

** BROKEN BY FIRE
Catchy, melodic tidbits sounding like Jack White, Smashing Pumpkins & Badly Drawn Boy sitting around the campfire playing Beatles tunes after a fine surf trip. The songs will rekindle the excitement you felt as a child when you finally found the prize at the bottom of the Crackerjack box.

** PEER SUPPORT
An indie-rock band from the heart of western Canada, Peer Support prides themselves on their tight and exciting live show. With a diverse range of influences from new-wave acts such as Joy Division, David Bowie, and The Smiths, to modern rock groups such as Peter Bjorn and John, The Strokes, and Modest Mouse, Peer Support offers a unique sound to listeners. Fresh from recording a three track EP at Public Lunch Studios in Calgary, Peer Support has experimented with adding string features, among other elements to their driving-melodic sound, to produce an arrangement that will truly not disappoint.

** THE BEST REVENGE
A scrappy little punk band from Vancouver called The Best Revenge. They specialize in a certain brand of fist-pumping, floor-thumping rock that most people thought died out when the hipsters crashed the party. They’re the answer to an empty Saturday night, the one-finger salute to the working week. They’re the antidote to the dull machine, the computer screen, the same old scene. They are The Best Revenge.
