Amelia Earhart   www.myspace.com/ameliaearhartband   is a drum/bass duo from Lethbridge, Alberta. Forming in the summer of 2008 while James was house sitting, a living room was converted into a practice space and they began writing. Since that summer Amelia Earhart has gone on to record a five song EP entitled Sketelon. They have toured across Canada and in 2009 the band's music was featured in the independent film Hoodoo Voodoo. Known for their driving sonic assault with penetrating drums and fuzzed out bass riffs they are a live show not to be missed. Amelia's Future plans include recording another EP, and ample amounts of touring.

Sophmore Jakes www.sophmorejakes.com are  Fort Macleod punk-pop band.

 Despite the fact that southern Alberta isn’t the ideal setting for the evolution of punk, the Sophmore Jakes have melded their own version of power pop punk rock scanning their own moral and cultural beliefs into well rounded and mature anthems for today’s youth. Drawing from influences such as the Clash, the Police, Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Blink-182 the Sophmore Jakes are devout storytellers with a keen sense of humour and love of political satire. The Sophmore Jakes have been together and touring for the last four years bringing their high energy show to small time clubs and big time music festivals. Never needing a reason to get back on the road Sophmore Jakes continue to site the musician credo "any excuse to play." Although the power trio (age ranging from 21 to 23) remain rather young working in the music industry, they continue to smith their songs with the maturity and work ethic of seasoned songwriters. During the summer of 2006 the boys took a much needed break to write and record their first full length and self titled album, an exquisite collection of ten songs bridging the gap between politics, heartbreak, love and revenge. Releasing the album nation wide in HMV's, Cd Plus and Independent music stores as well as internet retailers such as itunes, pure tracks and on their website (www.sophmorejakes.com) the Jakes continue to tour tirelessly and bring their music to anyone and everyone in hopes to create a better understanding towards political and environmental awareness and tolerance. You know, like the Falcon. "A punch in the face has likely never been so much fun!
