Featured Artists
Listed below are some of our featured artists that we find pretty awesome. We think you will too.
Our first artist hails all the way from Ontario, Canada far away from the comfort of the beaches of California. But they don't let the cold snow, and sleet stop them. They are "the Vicious Guns", and they are comprised of Jennie Vicious (tuuli, the von bondies) & rch.iv (the scourge of the sea). They have been together blending sonic awesomeness since 2008.
In their previous musical careers, they have performed alongside and toured with such acts as cheap trick, Tommy Stinson, Bow Wow Wow, Bratmobile, Hole, the Donnas, Cranes, Whiskeytown, Stars, Vampire Weekend and more, releasing albums on Sympathy for the record industry (the white stripes, hole), Warner Records, and Alias Records (yo la tengo).
In the past 12 months they have released a self-titled/self-produced EP, toured the united states, canada, and the united kingdom (where they played one of the last 'stay beautiful' club nights @ the purple turtle in camden town, london), shared the stage with peter bjorn & john, and were personally selected by stephen trask to portray the angry inch in his own internationally acclaimed musical, hedwig & the angry inch during its toronto run. they garnered outstanding reviews at nxne & cmw 2009 and have been featured internationally in publications such as the independent, LA times, village voice, and on CBC. they are currently finishing their debut full length album which will be available summer 2010.
