SUBMISSION is a Vancouver- based trio with rock sensibilities and a metal edge. Together for eight years, the three natives of Lethbridge, Alberta have developed a dynamic sound, which combined with soul and heart and spirit and a no-holds-barred live show, rocks audiences into Submission. Showing profound maturity and extraordinary musical sensibility the band has already shared the stage with Sam Roberts, Mathew Good, Treble Charger, Holly McNarland, Chantal Kreviazuk, Sloan, Gob, Theory of a deadman, Eve 6 and Cheap Trick and received airplay throughout Canada.

UNLEARNED - Formed by Jason "Moon", with his interest in mysterious dark influences and inspired by some of modern rock's darkest horses, such as; Tool, A Perfect Circle, NIN & Janes Addiction, Unlearned's original heavy rock is dramatic, moody and aggressive. http://www.unlearnedband.com

TODD KERNS shot to fame with his first band THE AGE OF ELECTRIC who released many award winning albums, spawned several gigantic radio hits, a Juno nomination and Gold selling status. Now as a thriving solo artist and producer/songwriter, Todd is very much alive and well, having played legendary stages from The Whiskey A Go Go and The Roxy in LA to CBGBs in NYC and Maple Leaf Gardens in TO. Todd has appeared on albums by such artists as THE MATTHEW GOOD BAND, BIF NAKED and most recently lent his voice to THE NEVERENDING WHITE LIGHTS project that's currently burning up the Canadian music charts. http://www.toddkerns.com

HYBRAHMA is a band that refuses to be categorized in a single style of music. It doesn't really matter who's in the band. It doesn't matter what bands they played in before. It certainly doesn't matter how good they look. The only thing that matters is how good they sound, how hard they rock and how you've never heard music so great. http://www.hybrahma.com
