BA Johnston http://www.myspace.com/bajohnston or http://www.justfriends.ca/ba/ has spent the last 4 years either living at his moms or touring canada on the greyhound bus. he's played in laundromats, laundry rooms, stag and does, church halls, legions, bars, bookstores, vegan cafes and other hell holes across this country with bands like immaculate machine, cuff the duke and mayor mcca. his music is nerd rock at its highest point, dork lullabys and loser anthems. 5 albums later he is still eating mr.noodles in his moms basement and hoping to soon escape. He has spent the last 8 years touring the country on the bus. He has shared the stage with acts like the Rheostatics, the Constantines, Cuff the Duke, the Silverhearts, the Guthries, Joel Plaskett and tons more, and has toured the country supporting Immaculate Machine, Mayor Mcca and Falconhawk. He has played such high profile schmooze fests like Halifax Pop. Close to the Coast (Charlottetown) and Ranchfest (Vancouver). He hopes one day to be rich and famous, buy a deep fryer for his room, and finally dance with a girl when Stairway to Heaven is the last song of the night.

 

 

Shotgun Jimmie — http://www.myspace.com/jimjimers or http://www.shotgunjimmie.com



Jimmie Kilpatrick is a previous member and founder of the defunct but legendary Canadian band Shotgun & Jaybird. He is popularly known as Shotgun Jimmie of the said band which was organized at Ajax, Ontario. The group had successful album releases from the year 2003 when the first started out until 2006. Around the year 2004, he was out on his own, fled Ajax and lived a secluded life in the Marshwinds Farm. During those solitary moments in his home studio, he composed and recorded his own music and created his first solo album The Onlys which was produced by Delorean Records.

The screen name Shotgun Jimmie was coined back in his high school days when he was challenged by his friends in a competition to occupy the passenger seat of another person’s van. Being competitive in nature, he took the dare and from then on, his colleagues started calling him Shotgun Jimmie.

Shotgun Jimmie is a one-man band that has both the talent of a vocalist and a songwriter. He had a successful launching of his first solo album at Sackville, NB in October of last year. Following the said concert, he had series of performances with Baby Eagle and Construction Deconstruction.
