Info zu True Rockers

Nachdem sie vor zwei Jahren das mächtige "Sittin' Heavy" veröffentlicht hatten, spielten sie in den 18 darauffolgenden Monaten über 150 Shows. Sie supporteten Größen wie Nickelback, Billy Talent, Black Stone Cherry, Volbeat, The Temperance Movement, Jane's Addiction, Rob Zombie, Alter Bridge oder Deep Purple. Viele Konzerte ihrer bis dahin größten Europa-Headlinertour waren ausverkauft, und sie spielten hunderte Mainstage Festivalslots wie dem Ramblin' Man Fair (UK), Download (UK), Rock on the Range (USA), Shiprocked (USA) und Rock in Vienna (AT). "True Rockers" ist der Sound einer Band, die völlig loslassen kann. "Wir möchten, dass die Leute so viel Spaß wie möglich haben, wenn sie unsere Musik hören." Gitarrist Jeremy Widerman fügt hinzu: "Gleich zu Beginn könnt ihr hören, wie ich Marv anschreie und dieser Vibe zieht sich durch das ganze Album hindurch: Wir vier sind in einem Raum, schreien uns an, machen uns über uns selbst lustig und haben jede Menge Spaß dabei." Ein Muss für alle Fans von Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kyuss, Alice in Chains, Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, Clutch, Metallica, Deep Purple, At the Drive In, The Grateful Dead, Queens of the Stone Age, Rancid, NOFX, AC/DC!

Monster Truck

Monster Truck
There's something comforting about a band name that delivers exactly what you are expecting to hear. The band realizes the potential for a sort of kitsch status being inadvertently placed upon them. However those curious to dig deeper will quickly realize their conviction for delivering authentic and original hard rock tunes.

The band was formed in 2009 by Jon Harvey (Bass & Lead vocals), Jeremy Widerman (Guitar & Vocals), Brandon Bliss (Organ & Vocals) and Steve Kiely (Drums & Vocals) as somewhat of a side-project for their other more serious bands (The Reason, Saint Alvia). Quickly the original plan of getting wasted and playing sloppy rock got twisted into something new entirely. Everyone's influences gelled in a cohesive and exciting new take on all of the classic rock that had come before them. Quickly show offers piled up as well as festival slots and the band realized that they had something that was undeniably fun and exciting on their hands.

One of the most notable experiences came when the premiere of FUBAR 2 was rolling into TIFF on a flatbed truck driving through Toronto. The band was asked to come aboard to add their music to a mix of Terry, Deaner and dancing bikini babes. Needless to say a match made in rock n' roll heaven was quickly formed. Other memorable 2010 shows included two different appearances at the Sound Academy. One supporting Steel Panther and a second show for EDGE 102's Xmas bash with Die Mannequin.

Two EP's have been released since the band's inception. The first self-titled EP was recorded by Gus Van Go & Werner F (The Stills, Preistess, Hollerado) and was received with open arms and ears by eager fans in August of 2010. Eager to follow up the recording the band hit the studio and tracked “The Brown EP” with Eric Ratz (Billy Talent, Cancer Bats, Three Days Grace). The four songs it contains not only shows a firm grasp of the classic roots that enabled this group but also their ability to add in flavours of grunge and punk era greats they loved so dearly.

The band has quickly become known for their live show and the growing confidence on stage is now more apparent than ever. The constant show regiment and recording process is sharpening the band's delivery and there's no doubt that anyone still interested in original and authentic rock music will be compelled to pay attention.
