The Sorrows
The Sorrows are considered perhaps to be the archetypal "Freakbeat" band. Formed in 1963 in Coventry, England, they released their first album "Take a Heart" in 1965 on the Piccadilly Records label which was a subsidiary of Pye Records. The Sorrows were at the time the hardest, most aggressive and contemporary R&B band of that time, although later this brand of music was eventually termed "Freakbeat".
The New Cities
Blending the timeless tastiness of classic synth-pop to the intensity and dynamics of modern punk and the irrefutable rump mobilization of the recent dance-rock insurgence, the New Cities are primed to bring their own form of urban renewal to the Canadian pop-music scene and beyond as their first single, “Dead End Countdown,” hit radio waves in February, with the full album, "Lost In City Lights", released in May 2009.
Baby Bitch
Baby Bitch were the finest rock 'n' roll band to ever disgrace a stage. Combining infectious pop melodies with punk energy and a metallic stomp, accompanied with a twisted sense of humour and an unhealthy fixation with Crispin Glover, their unforgettable tunes and charismatic presence were utterly irresistable. Formed in 2005, the lineup consisted of: Stephen James Buckley - Vocals/Guitar
Wayne Cole - Drums/Vocals
Adam Kendall - Guitar/Vocals
Sean Womack - Bass The Bitch gigged extensively throughout the UK, and picked up a loyal following. Mostly young and female.
