Faded Blue is riding high on the success of their latest single “Turn It Up which has received air play on K Rock and across Canada. “Turn it Up” can be downloaded from the group’s website www.fadedbluerocks.com.
The Halifax rock group features P.E.I. guitarist Nick Gauthier, Tyler Lopez, Bryan Page and Mark Clazie.
Faded Blue has made appearances on Breakfast Television and Christmas Daddies where they wrote and performed a Christmas song, “Here & Gone”. They have toured Atlantic Canada and this performance will be their second on PEI, with another scheduled in March.
Disco Rockin’ Llamas is a relatively new group with two members from the popular group Stride, Ashley Gorman and Eric Wood. Joining them are Scott Doyle of Mystery System and Laura Oakie a well known musician and singer. They are just back from a performance at the ECMA’s in Fredericton where the joint was jumping.
Intoxicado, formed last year, is known for its hard driving rock sounds.
“Fans will warm to the bluesy guitar work, strong rhythm section and singing,” says a press release promoting tonight’s show. “The group has a tight sound that keeps the audience on the floor.”
Metro Credit Union is a corporate sponsor of this event.
