SUGARBLADE
Since their debut in 2004, Sugarblade has been playing relentlessly to rave reviews and an ever-growing loyal fan base. It became obvious after only a few live shows that Sugarblade was something special. The band released a 7-song EP entitled "Faux" in July of 2006, which has been selling steadily and exposing them to more and more fans. Sugarblade is now finishing up the new record and are now hitting the road to promote their sophomore effort.
JESSICA BEACH
Jessica's musical tastes and influences are far-reaching. Her diverse musical exposure is evident in her dynamic songwriting as she strives to carve out her own unique brand of accessible and intelligent pop. After winning Calgary radio station VIBE 98.5's 'Unsigned Vibe 2004' contest, Jessica recorded her first full length release 'Sticky Hands' and released music videos for the singles "Change" "The World" and "Sticky Hands". Best described as "Cabaret Rock" Jessica's music appeals to a broad audience and has provoked fans to comment "it represents the moment you know things are going to get better". Jessica's songs are relatable, hooky and very radio-friendly, well-written, well-produced material and fantastic to watch as a live performer!
SPOTLIGHT CARNIVAL
A fan-tastic new group from East Vancouver, B.C. Spotlight Carnival has played in many different bands/incarnations over the years, but has come together to form this band... Their debut record will be available extremely soon, and was mixed by local producer/engineer extraordinaire Shawn Cole (You Say Party! We Say Die!). Their music is a mix of atmospheric, pop, and post-rock sounds. At times, it is textured and full-sounding, other times it is stripped down.
Plus a Surprise Special Guest!!!
CHARITY
As previously stated this is a charity even and 100% of all proceeds are going to The Salvation Army “Adopt a Family” Program. This helps needy families put food on the table and presents under their tree. You can get additional information at their website at www.salvationarmyvancouver.org
