Witiko - “vancouver” existential grunge punk w/ a soft side

Whether live or in the studio, Witiko is an all encompassing experience. Built on lifelong bonds and musical chemistry between its four members, the band has honed in an expansive sound that seamlessly transports listeners from the abrasiveness of grunge to the warmth of surf across the course of a setlist. Screaming riffs act as portals into a lyrical whirlwind of existential dread, spiritual clarity, and the socio-political implications of Indigeneity and colonialism. Métis martyr Louis Riel once said, “my people will sleep for 100 years, but when they awake, it will be the artists who give them their spirit back” — Witiko has emerged to end the century of sleep with feedback, fervour, and noise.

Cheap Flavor - van/vic hardcore americana

Raised on equal parts Minutemen, John Lee Hooker, and System of A Down, this power trio of hollerin' bastards have played for near a decade up and down the west coast. Slinging homemade hot sauce for merch and covering every artist from nelly furtado to pete seeger, they'll make ya shake your ass and shout for class war in the same 45 minute set. or at least until they get winded.
