Conrad will also be screening their new animated music video for "Airstrike", which is included on the disc. The video has already been seen by audiences coast to coast on MuchMusic's The Wedge and is also being shown at the IMFV Festival from Vancouver to Austin, Texas. With 2 Canadian Tours already under their belt, watch for Conrad to hit the road again in support of their newest CD!
CONRAD - Veering from hook-filled indie rock to swirling dream pop, Conrad's alt-pop-twang is atmospheric and poetic. Their lyrics deal with revolutionaries and love, moving from personal introspection to the current political landscape with edgy ease. Comprised of singer/songwriter Larry Lechner, guitarist Mark Eddy, Adrian Popple on bass, vocals and keyboards, and Marc L'Esperance on drums, Conrad delivers "richly textured jangly pop" (Queue Magazine) journey. "Quirky and clever&sad coolness&will appeal to anyone who actually listens to lyrics." Discorder songs that to cautious twang. http://www.conradmusic.com
The HARD ROCK MINERS' foot-stomping Canadian rockabilly is a contagious blend of rhythm and humour that will have you both dancing and laughing your ass off. Formed in 1987 by Michael Turner, who also authored the novels Hard Core Logo, American Whiskey Bar and The Pornographer's Poem, The Hard Rock Miners' eccentric alt-country-punksters are a veritable who's who of local luminaries who play in or have founded bands like Ford Pier, The Highballs, Royal Grand Prix, The Come Ons, and many more!
STEPHEN HEDLEY - With an effortless, soulful vocal style and guitar playing that incorporates elements of jazz, blues, rock and folk, Stephen Hedley crafts melodic pop songs that have a timeless quality. http://www.stephenhedley.com
