Doors at 8pm, show at 9pm
Exploding out of the ever-vibrant music community of Canada’s West Coast is the Vancouver quintet Goodbye Beatdown – here to move the millions with their grinding lightning groove.
Melding the best dance-floor elements of roots-rock, reggae, electric blues, funk, soul, and urban hip-hop into a modern boogie mélange they recall the energy of Sublime and the Red Hot Chili Peppers while maintaining a sound and image all their own. Goodbye Beatdown’s true powers have been the unending series of overheated, sweat-drenched capacity crowds they’ve captivated at Vancouver’s most prestigious venues – including the acclaimed Commodore Ballroom and sadly missed Richard’s on Richards. They’ve shared stages with such seemingly disparate notables as Bif Naked, Default, Finger Eleven and Sean Kingston and have more than held their own- winning every crowd, every time.
No matter where they’re gigging – the Canadian Prairies, Toronto, California – it’s scorching high noon in mid-July, both in attitude and in sheer sonic sweat-out.
Hailing from Burlington, Ontario Walk Off the Earth are comprised of 3 members, all with extensive backgrounds in the Canadian music scene - usually behind the scenes as writers or producers. In two short years, the band sold over 2000 CD’s through their own label, SlapDash Records while sharing the stage with noteworthy outfits like Bedouin Soundclash, K-OS, Ill Scarlett, The Johnstones, and many more! Their sophomore album, ‘My Rock’, is due in 2009 and will take off where their charming reggae-rock debut Smooth Like Stone on a Beach took off! Taking cues from legends before them like; The Clash and The Police - it’s just a matter of time before we’re all humming their infectious melodies down the street on the way to work! Walk Off the Earth will join Warped Tour this year for a few dates and tour their new release. Expect to hear more from these cats.
poor little rich girl. it's been described as a hierarchical system of monkies, a movie starring little orphan annie, edie sedgwick, or simply: us.
poor little rich girl like all bands comes from humble beginnings, and humble garages. we built a jam space in our garage, recruited a bass player after 1 year without one, and got serious. 1 year, 2 EP's later, and countless shows, friends and stages, poor little rich girl is the following:
cam lutz: drums & percussion [he's also in charge of business, because he's the responsible one]
rob raybould: bass & ladykilling [if you've seen us live, you know what "rob raybould's wireless" means. if you haven't seen us play yet, you'll never forget after]
cory myraas: vocals & rhythm guitar [the glasses and the hair, that's all that needs to be said. maybe dance moves, watch out]
and our newest member, luke arnold: lead guitar & and overall awesomeness [the dose of excitement and enthusiasm that plrg much needed. his lead lines are also phenomenal]
