A LITTLE DIDDY ABOUT THE BANDS

GLADYSS PATCHES
http://www.gladysspatches.com/FlashNew/Default2.asp

The evolution into a 4 piece outfit also saw the evolution of a sound. Gladyss Patches moved away from the hip-hop tinged sounds of ?A Wish This Simple? and began to stretch out their more melodic muscles. With the help of local producer Larry Anschell (Nickelback, Pearl Jam, Sum 41) Gladyss entered Turtle Studios in White Rock, B.C. to record a 3 song demo of some of their newer material. These new songs immediately began to turn heads and heralded a new beginning in the annals of Gladyss Patches history. The songs also garnered the attention of Brian Howes (DDT, Closure) who, while still writing music for his own band, was also becoming a producer of critical acclaim in the industry. With the help of Brian and his partner Jay van Poederoyen they wrote and recorded 3 brand new songs which took the new sound to greater heights than the band thought they could reach. With the onset of such great new songs and with their managements future looking uncertain, they decided to amicably split with both NFE records and their long time manager Clyde Hill. Now, armed with songs that could make the whole world sing, Gladyss Patches is on a quest to find new management and a new record deal so that they can bring pure rock back to North America.



SOMA CITY WARD

Soma City Ward was formed in Kelowna, B.C. in 1998 by guitarist Alley and former drummer Richard. Knowing what a hotbed of talent and opportunity Vancouver, B.C. is, they headed for the coast. After many lineup changes, Soma City Ward has grown to include Zedd on the bass
holding down a solid underlying groove and Morgan on synth and hand drums adding depth and color to the already impressive sonic landscape of the band. Skinny 2 Sticks on drums, bringing the backbeat to the
band in a solid way and Cam on vocals, adding depth and power to the message of the songs.


CATAPULT

Stemming from Vancouver's hotbed of local musical talent CATAPULT fuses progressive rock, metal, and pop blended with an acoustic southern influence. Dirty rock for the masses.
CATAPULT was conceived in 1997 by singer/acoustic guitar player MYK SHAFLIK, who's past includes a long history in the Vancouver music scene. Myk's credit's include vocalist/songwriter for Demo LISTEN/SEEDS award winning band OPIUM UNDERGROUND, as well as JOKERS
WILD, NASTY TOYZ, RANSOM, and a host of other cover and original bands earlier in his career.
