CHAINS OF LOVE :: http://
Chains of Love has effectively bridged the gap between the nostalgic pop sounds of the ’60s with a modern and elegant twist. All hailing from Vancouver, BC this five-piece started in December 2010, referencing certain artists such as Gail Harris, Ike & Tina, The Ronnettes, and The Shangri-la’s by using their lo-fi recording styles as a blueprint for what they wanted to hear in music today. Open up your heart and let Chains be your rock and soul salvation.
DAN MANGAN :: http://
Once a mere fresh faced folk singer from Vancouver Canada, Dan Mangan is blowing up on the world’s doorstep with four JUNO nominations this year, including Best New Artist & Songwriter of the Year. The evolution of Mangan’s music is instinctively in line with its breadth and sincerity. As his art has developed, so has the story behind its constant and exponential proliferation. Mangan’s latest opus, Oh Fortune, was released on Arts & Crafts late last year and is a rich, textured, indie-folk(ish) statement that explores the genre’s boundaries with great influence from his band.
SAID THE WHALE :: http://saidthewhale.com/ 10pm
In the five years since Said The Whale formed, the band’s hook-heavy, pop-rock sound has propelled them to successes that include a nationally televised documentary, a JUNO Award victory for best new artist, and a seemingly endless series of tours around the globe. In an age of overnight internet sensations, theirs is a true grassroots success story that has allowed the group to take its place among the Canadian indie rock elite.
SLAM DUNK :: http://
Described as the “E-Street band on Crack”, Slam Dunk’s live shows command people to lose their shiiiit to a blend of shout-along choruses and twisting fuzz-guitar melodies. With the help of Vancouver producer Colin Stewart (Black Mountain, New Pornographers), Slam Dunk were able to capture the intense energy of their live performances on the recent full-length album, The Shivers.
HUMANS :: http://dashumans.com/ 12am
Humans are an electro dance party duo from Vancouver, BC. Robbie Slade and Peter Ricq got together in 2008 and instantly started creating dance floor bangers. The release of their latest EP Traps on Hybridity Music this spring solidifies the duo as an act that will not only make you sweat but you will also never forget.
MONOLITHIUM :: https://www.facebook.com/
A child of hip-hop and a student of contemporary electronic music, Monolithium’s sound is the axiom where funk, techno and grime coalesce into concise, focused dancefloor pressure. Chris Longshanks’ debut EP, Simon & G-Funk (via Error Broadcast) is packed with psychedelic crunk from another realm altogether, combining the structures of hip-hop with tough, sexy grooves & colourful synth work.

Saturday: CHECK DEEZ GRILLZ
It would seem that throughout history all of life’s most urgent questions have been eloquently answered by Female MC’s. It was Lil’ Kim after all who asked “How Many Licks Does it Take Till you Get to the Centre”; an issue that men had been pondering for decades prior. To repay these ladies for enriching our lives and solving our most intimate of inquires, Ponyboy and Winniecooper.net present CHECK DEEZ GRILLZ, Saturday, December 17, at the infamous Astoria. Hosted by man babe Rad Stewart, this event will bring out some of Vancouver’s hottest hip hop DJ’s, including DJ MISS M.
Although she currently resides in Vancouver, DJ MISS M (@djmissm) has travelled around the world opening up for such musical heavyweights as Nelly, Fatman Scoop, and T-pain. And as the only female member of the DRAMA SQUAD CREW, featuring GTL junkie DJ Pauly D, DJ MISS M is proving that females really can do it better.
Here’s a recent interview with MISS M, where she describes her musical roots and gives you a preview of what to expect come Saturday.
How Did you Start Djing?
I bought my first pair of technics 1200′s and $99 stanton mixer on ebay Practiced for 3 months everyday then started looking for gigs.

Most hilarious moment behind a pair of turntables?
Halloween 3 years ago, I had a group of girls dress up as different Britney Spears’ (Bald Britney, Mom Britney, School Girl Britney, Slave for you Britney, etc). At the end of the night Britney spears fake baby and a snake (from slave from you video) was left spinning on top of the turntables. Fun night!
Something new you are digging right now?
Definitely the new Drake Album Take care is my jam right now
What sort of songs can we look forward to on Saturday (if you can pick 3. can you tell us a sentence or two about each?
1. Pass that Dutch – Missy Elliot (Great track to get everyone going)
2. Rock with you – Michael Jackson (One of my Favorites)
