Off The Top Rope is a wrestling based three piece punk band from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan formed in 2016. Since then, they have recorded and self released two demos, one live album, and played with numerous acts like SNFU, The Pack AD, Joe and the Shitboys, Sgt. Papers, as well as opening for comedian Brian Posehn.

Crystal Mess  (Calgary, AB)

Farron : Vocs / Dave : Git / Colin : Bass / Mike : Skins

"While punks and metalheads both owe their existence to the instigators of the ‘80s, the majority of Calgary’s heavy music community was either unborn or unaware of these styles of music when they were first emerging. Crystal Mess on the other hand is a group of true ‘80s thrashers that are continuing Calgary’s crossover tradition."

The Moröns (Calgary, Alberta)

Robbie Morön - Lead vox, Davie Morön - Guitar/Backups, G.G. Morön - Guitar/Backups, Jonny Morön - Bass/Backups, J.C. Morön - Drums
 

The Moröns (Pronounced MOR-OWNS) are the self-proclaimed 'Quintessential Party Punk Band". Started in late 2017 and hailing from the depths of "Hick City" (Calgary, Canada), these spastic troglodytes were voted "Most Likely to Say Something Inappropriate at Grandmas House" for good reason. 

In 2019 they were somehow nominated for the ‘Best of Calgary’ award for ‘Live Act of the Year’ as well as the ‘YYC Music Awards’ for ‘Rock Recording of the Year’. Of course, they lost both in glorious fashion, but this is all new to them as they are usually shunned by critics and ignored by promoters completely. With their ‘don't take no shit from nobody’ mantra, the Moröns still always find a way to invade your brain and dry-fuck your earholes.

Quit It! (Calgary, Alberta)
Tyler Burton - Bass/Vox, Mikey Blotto - Drums/Vox, Jordan Barrett - Guitar/Vox, Spencer Jo Burgess - Guitar/Vox
Quit It! formed in 2020 when members of River Jacks set out to transition from their folk punk roots to a harder sound manifested by recent events. In a year that brought civil unrest on a global scale, the band has elevated its message to new heights.
Their music is hard-nosed, anthemic punk rock that gets your feet moving. All four members contribute lyric and vocal duties, and with their social message at the forefront of the writing process, they provide heart-pumping rock by committee.

Herd.jpg

Herd of Wasters (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan)
Kris Webb - Guitar/vox, Bart Dutchak - Drums, Andy Kesslar - Bass/vox
Forming in early 2011, these over-aged adolescent freaks got drunk and recorded an album about their hatred of Michael Graves, stupid made up drinking games, and other nonsensical bullshit. Since then, they (slowly) matured and focused on writing about sexism, politics, human rights and people they hate. Despite the setbacks they've had and the long distance relationship of the band, these idiots are still writing and playing shows when they can.
