Hollerado is a band that existed from 2008 until 2019, from a small town called Manotick, Ontario. During that time, they played a couple thousand shows - in basements, stadiums and everything in between. Their DIY spirit and "say yes" attitude took them on tours through over 20 countries including cities as far and wide as Sao Paolo, Beijing, Moscow and Hamilton, with bands like Weezer, Flaming Lips, Sum 41 and Fred Penner. Along the way, frontman Menno Versteeg started Royal Mountain Records to release the band’s own music, which eventually led to the discovery of internationally acclaimed artists like Alvvays, PUP and Orville Peck, as well as releases from Mac Demarco, Metz and U.S Girls.

The 4-time JUNO losers had a whole bunch of hit songs, and one gold record that took literally 13 years to get there. In 2019, the band retired after a 60+ plus date world tour that concluded with 3 sold out nights at the Danforth Music Hall, and a final show at Toronto's Horseshoe Tavern.

On one of those last shows, longtime pals Tokyo Police Club opened the night, so years later when they asked Hollerado to come out of retirement for a couple days to play their final shows, we said yes. And those were so darn fun we decided that six years was a long enough break, and 2025 would be the year we get back on the horse and see if it remembers the way back to town.

.....and, yes, we wrote this bio ourselves and, yes, the first part of it was written in the third person because otherwise it sounds weird.
