Woo hoo! Canadian bearded babe rockers won the cover of Rolling Stone contest.
I’ve not heard heaps of their music but I like their beards and attitudes from what I’ve seen/read.
“We’ve been working hard for a long time,” said the band’s grateful frontman Ewan Currie. “We’re doing our best to stay humble and hard-working, we feel very blessed. All we needed was the attention.” Globe
“The music industry has changed so much that there’s no set way of proceeding,” Currie said. “There’s not a formula you follow, like for other careers. You have to sort of jump on any opportunity that comes along and this has been a godsend for us.” Globe
“”Good-time rockers The Sheepdogs are proud, bearded rock revivalists, with a whole manner of beards, ‘burns and ‘staches on display over the years. This may help bearded rock ‘n’ roll roll make its return to the cover of Rolling Stone.” CTV
“Rock and Rollers from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Specializing in melody, harmony, guitar solos and general feel-goodery. Twitter
They made this video to get people voting. I like their style.
We may not kill it in sports but we surely are kicking’ it in music. This video of them getting the news from Rolling Stone about winning is pretty good too.
This weekend (Sunday) they are playing Beerfest. Everyone can go! Using coupon code ‘CASIE‘ saves you $5 on tickets. Get a ticket here. Will most likely sell out before Sunday.
Full band lineup is here. Our Digital Lounge has seating, wifi, power and lite snacks. <3
Matt Wells had some good Tweets & pix about them in NYC yesterday. Love seeing Canada kicking a$$ in awesomeness.
Good writeup about them in the Globe which included this B&Wphoto. Glad I’m seeing them Sunday so I can decide IRL about the music. I love that look, beard & hair like Jesus.
If you’re going Sunday LMK! Have an awesome day 🙂 Happy Monday Tuesday!
