Janky Bungag
Janky Bungag is sweet and spicy wrapped into a bluegrass pickin’, good timin’ man. Hailing from Vancouver, Janky takes the every day ins and outs of living in a city and transforms theminto a song that each person can relate to. From love to lust, heart break to smoke break, he touches on all the emotions with a laid back lighthearted energy.
With every strum you’ll hear a little bit of bluegrass. With every note you can catch a little bit of country. In every song you get a cocktail of all of Janky’s musical inspirations: Merle Haggard, David Allen Coe, and Willie Nelson to name a few. Janky is an escape from the norm of what people think country music is. Some say it’s got shades of punk influence. But if you can’t put your finger on how to describe this music, you can at least call it a good time.

Spank Williams
Spank Williams is a country band from Vancouver, which takes as much from Hank Williams as they do from Tom Waits. The band has been cutting their teeth playing the bar and underground circuit of Vancouver BC for the last two years. Growing up in between the streets of Merritt BC and the streets of east Vancouver, Spank Williams takes influence from a multitude of genres and artists. Bringing high energy and an undying work ethic to everything they do.

Runner
Runner is a Vancouver-based band fronted by singer-songwriter Kira Cuthbertson. After moving west from Calgary, Kira got her start in the audio engineering field working at recording studios and putting in time on her own material after hours- that's how she met bandmates, Mackenzie Knight, Hayden Watson, Daniel Forrest and Alex Walters. Individually they have their own distinct styles but as a band they walk the line between alternative and country, offering a blend of heartfelt lyricism and simple yet poignant production. They’ve released four singles thus far, paving the way for their debut EP, arriving this Spring.
