I have a new favourite band and it’s Vancouver’s own Bend Sinister. They played a memorable show during CMW at the Horseshoe where they not only played an upbeat show but they also covered a memorable version of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” – and pulled it off without being cheesy. Since then, I’ve seen them play at The Rivoli and Bovine Sex Club where they have continuously impressed the crowds and gained new fans. Case in point: I was getting my haircut at the Grateful Dead Collective, when I heard a familiar song play over the stereo’s loudspeaker. I realized that it was “Because Because” by these guys, one of the hairstylists was at the Bovine show, bought their album and raved about them at work. The picture above is an outtake from my photoshoot before their Rivoli gig, check the rest of the pictures on Soundproof Magazine.
these guys look awesome
