Bigfoot is described in reports as a large, ape-like, and legendary creature, determined to change the face of music. This Toronto based rock band has already torn through the club scene after big performances at the Horseshoe Tavern and the Mod Club. With an aggressive, sludgy sound, Bigfoot will be heard. Bigfoot will be seen.

Blood Shot Eyes is a Hard Rock/Alternative band originating out of the Kingston area. With a mix of Grunge/SKA and Hard rock, this is one band you'll have to check out. "Their musicianship is pretty damn good....lots of potential...." -- Garrett Drach - RockWerks Studios/Treeview Records

The Beta 58's aren't the answer, the pioneers, or the stars of anything. They're the loudmouths you see playing rock and roll down the street in that bar that looks like it closed months ago. They play simple, fast, and loud songs to get that last work week out of your head. Get your butt kickers on and get to the front of the stage, The Beta 58's are coming to a dive near you!
