** The Dreadnoughts (Vancouver, CAN)

One part roaring sea shanty, one part haunting folk melody, and a solid chaser of gut-crunching street punk:The Dreadnoughts are Vancouver's biggest, baddest, drunkest, punkest folk band.

Since their humble beginnings in 2006, drinking and playing in the roughest dive bars in the city, the Dreadnoughts have built a large and loyal following in Vancouver.

** Wham Bam Bodyslam
WHAM BAM BODYLSAM exist since 2008 and they released their first LP in 2011. 2012 they followed it up with a Split-7” with the legendary Swingin’ Utters from San Francisco.

It’s minimalistic, energetic folk-music with a special twist. Hints of Viennese waltz and old style Austrian folk clearly let their ancestry shine through the classic American folk and country influences. The singer’s rough voice brings out the punk roots of the band. The lyrics tell stories of social differences, fear, joy, travelling and drinking. Countless gigs in DYI-style so far brought them through Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany and Slovenia…
