"Who needs ten fingers when you sound this good?" - Kim Kelly (Noisey/Vice)
"Right now, there's a guitarist from Moose Jaw who might be the saviour of guitar rock. And he's missing a bunch of his fingers.... J2F & the D'stake their cues from southern-fried boogie rock and infuse it with a boozy belt of punk rock for good measure." - Ominocity
LOCAL SUPPORT FROM HALF SPENT!!
If you haven't heard these guys from Kimberley yet, you are in for a treat - and time to get hyped coz they will be playing on the Fun Field Festival stage on June 28th!!
Consisting of members Dawson Rutledge (vocals, guitar), Dallas Moore (guitar), Julian Bueckert (drums), and Angus Liedtke (bass, synth) Half Spent has been sonically bombarding other humans since 2017. With a Y2K influence and dash of psych-pop, Half Spent sends you down a river of velvet melodies to assaulting fuzz that's all contained in a towering fortress of sound. The band’s love for that 90s steez and early ‘00s super rock sound comes from influences such as Title Fight, The Districts and Oasis. From Arizona to New York, the band has had the pleasure to entertain folks all around North America but gladly call the East Kootenays home.
$15 presale tickets - $20 at the door - $5 drinks as always
