★THE STANFIELDS★

Meet The Stanfields, a maelstrom of rock �n� roll, Celtic and bluegrass. Hailing from the gritty post-industrial towns of Nova Scotia, Canada, The Stanfields play every show like it�s their collective last night on earth. Their kitchen party harmonies, thunderous rhythm section, high-octane stage show and genuine chemistry have won over audiences from coast to coast.

Since forming in 2008, The Stanfields wasted no time making their mark on the venerable Atlantic Canadian music scene. Hailed as �The Clash meets Steve Earle� by Great Big Sea's Sean McCann and �The Bastard Children of AC/DC and Stan Rogers� by Halifax's Q104 FM, The Stanfields cater to primal rock �n� roll instinct, inviting you to think, drink, dance or fight back. It's your call.


★GLORYHOUND★

years of listening to Alice Cooper, The Ramones and Iggy Pop shaped their sound and being on the road whipped it in to shape.

With a debut album under their belts, the ECMA nominated �Leave It Alone�, the four high school band mates took up residency in Toronto last year to both impress the masses and record their second record. With fellow Haligonian Laurence Currie at the helms Gloryhound recorded �Electric Dusk�. On the strength of that recording, and a no holds barred sonic blast of a live performance, the band was signed to the prestigious Agency Group by company president Ralph James. Hundreds of gigs have followed and the band have shared stages with Thornley, The Creep Show, Anvil, The Sheep Dogs and played such events as Canadian Music Fest, NorthByNorthEast and JunoFest (in both Toronto and St. John�s).

After another summer tearing up Ontario, the band has returned to the Maritimes for the rest of 2011 where they will record, play and create mayhem as only Gloryhound can.
