Hey all you Canadian garage bands!

 

I know there's a bunch of you out there and it's impossible to hear about all of you. I'm just starting to work on an article for a fanzine about all of the current Canadian garage bands. Could all of you get in touch with me, either via the garage punk hideout or via email?

 

what wave at rogers dot com

 

And if you've got tunes, send MP3's or whatever my way for possible air play on Radio What Wave here in London Ontario....

 

thanx

dave

Dave:

Get in touch with the Living Deadbeats, they are from Vancouver and in this group, at least bass player Pete is.

 

And get in touch w/Mongrel Zine outta Van, Bob and Janelle are also on this group.

On second thought, I just put a couple new recordings on my profile page. Just recorded on a single mic in our living room, but it's what we use for local festival applications, so check it out.

Hey Dave, i live in northern BC, our band Tree Bomb is somewhat garage (getting more so all the time). Recordings are not quite ready yet, but will come eventually.

We're heading down to Vancouver in a couple of weeks - know of any bands we should be on the lookout for there? Anyone?

@ Hook Up...too late, but it turned out to be Ontario only. Someone else was supposed to do the Quebec scene but that didn't happen....new Bananas is now out with the article.

Hey Dave, don't forget us!!!!

What happened was, i started doing Ontario. The amount of garage and cool bands was overwhelming!! So many small and cool regional scenes that rarely interact due to geographical distances.

So the article is finished and published in the latest editon of Bananas zine out of NYC. It's a 3 pager, almost 3000 words and there's lots of pictures as well....the disappointing thing is, i missed some cool bands!!

Bananas is on facebook and you can mailorder issue 3 from them...it's a really cool zine. If you live in Toronto, you can get it at Frantic City, in London On it's at Grooves Records...also free at cool stores in the NYC area. And it's a really cool zine or did i say that already.

Have you finished your list yet Dave ?

Don't for get the heavy pysch of The Bon. Word has it that The Primordials have been playing in a basement somewhere, but will record under another name. Action Makes show some infulences. There is a small growing Power-pop thing here - Dany Laj, The James Clark  Institute and The Dickens.

 

Bananas is available at Frantic city 799 Queen St. West

Nope...still in progress. This will be in a NYC fanzine called Bananas...give me some info about all of those Toronto garage bands...besides UMH, Von Drats, Teenanger, 905's and Black Rainbows....There's gotta be more current bands i don't know about lurking in Toronto and/or Oshawa.
