SATORI TIDE - Consistently winning over new fans since their recent inception, Satori Tide fuses an intoxicating blend of reggae, funk, ska and wide open rock soundscapes. Their live performance speaks for itself with audiences quickly catching the party vibe, unable to resist joining in the party. Their natural charm and energy quickly connects with listeners, resulting in a string of highly-successful shows and a growing pack of dedicated, rambunctious and energetic fans. http://www.myspace.com/satoritide
GO GHETTO TIGER delivers devastating synth riffs and irresistibly danceable beats with a live show that has been described as "unpredictable, always keeping you guessing about where it might turn next." Their eclectic blend of guitar, bass and synth interjects playful drum loops, samples and melodic vocals, combining into intelligent, sparkly, melodic grooves with inspired lyrics and tempo changes. http://www.myspace.com/goghettotigermusic
The STRANGE MAGIC - Vancouver psychedelic collective The Strange Magic runs the gamut from sunkissed psych pop and juggernaut rock-outs to gossamer balladry and everything in between. Featuring members of The R.A.D.I.O., Panurge, The Awkward Stage and Blackout Lights, the band made its debut with a Japanese tour and has since shared the stage with such stellar acts as Os Mutantes, Pointed Sticks, Shonen Knife and Susan Jacks (Poppy Family). http://www.myspace.com/thestrangemagic
D.B. BUXTON combines soulful vocals with a blisteringly intense performance style honed from years on the freezing streets of Edmonton. From mysteriously engaging synth/guitar pop and wistful ballads to ferocious one man bandism and baroquely-layered electro funk, think early Nick Cave and Van Morrison on a drug binge with Jack White and Rufus Wainwright. http://www.dbbuxton.com
