HighKicks (2013)
Calgary, Alberta
While the duo of Danny Vacon (The Dudes, Dojo Workhorse) and Matt Doherty (Raleigh, Axis of Conversation) could easily get by on teen dream/heartthrob status alone, they instead have taken it upon themselves to prove that there's still a place in Calgary's heart for true rock 'n' roll. A self-contained party unit made up of soulful, Pilsner-fuelled vocals, thick and hummable fuzz bass and drums tighter than a nun's… ahem.
