The Lower 48
Hindenburg, 23 W. Cordova, Vancouver THE LOWER 48
Portland's The Lower 48 are "a slice of perfect pop, complete with kaleidoscopic swirls of sunshine and Beatlesesque harmonies—not to mention that they straight-up rock. This is what a perfect summer jam sounds like!" (Portland Mercury).
Energetic 60's garage and psychedelia and crafty pop.

CATLOW
Last year, indie-pop Vancouver native Catlow, (aka Natasha Thirsk), and band finally delivered her Pinkly Things EP, the follow-up to her 2006 debut Kiss the World. Now, the melodic songstress has given us something new to sink our teeth into with singles coming out on Aporia Records this winter 2014/2015.
Catlow, indie-pop Vancouver native Natasha Thirsk collaborates with varied musicians and producers across North America to create “hopelessly catchy” and “arrestingly angular grooves, with lithe intelligent vocals”
With influences ranging from New Order and the Smiths, to Elliot Smith, Liz Phair, Goldfrapp, Yeah Yeah Yeahʼs and Blonde Redhead, Thirsk combines catchy hooks with infectious, danceable beats, to create a completely unique sound.
