Event Description

A rocking psych-rock night celebrating the music of The Doors, The White Stripes and '60s garage-rock with a focus on the legendary "Nuggets" compilations!

. Friday, April 24th IMU presents The UNKNOWN SOLDIERS: A Celebration Of The Doors, The ELEVEN TWELVES Psychedelic Nuggets Tribute & WHITE BLOOD CELLS White Stripes Tribute @ The Railway Club, 579 Dunsmuir . Show 9pm / $10 cover

The UNKNOWN SOLDIERS come amazingly close to replicating the music of THE DOORS note for note while capturing their raw energy through each band member's interpretation, combining to deliver a groovy reproduction of a live Doors show that keeps audiences in a head-bobbing, toe-tapping trance. Their singer's Morrison-esque look, vibe and baritone voice combine with swirling organs and deft musicianship to captivate and transcend time and place, allowing audiences to be transported back in time to experience a taste of live shows that are now a part of rock mythology. http://www.theunknownsoldiers.info

The ELEVEN TWELVES - Full of fuzzy guitar riffs, soaring harmonies, manic drumming and vintage transistor organ, The Eleven Twelves specialize in playing '60s garage-rock. With a focus on the legendary NUGGETS compilations, they also play obscure gems and one hit wonders from the psychedelic era, capturing the raw energy and youthful spirit of the bands that influenced a generation. http://www.facebook.com/theeleventwelves

WHITE BLOOD CELLS is a Vancouver-based tribute to The White Stripes, one of the leading bands of the post-2000 garage rock revival. Intensely executed with heavily distorted power chords blasting a blasphemous noise, White Blood Cells honour the spirit of the Stripes with their explosive, minimalist, authentic blues rock. http://www.facebook.com/whitebloodcellsbc
