|
With their energetic stage presence, busting rhythms and tight harmonies, this young (just out of high school) band has captured the attention of the Canadian music industry and fans alike. Their humble beginnings playing in support of charity events and foundations has garnered them a varied, loyal and enthusiastic fan base that grows with every turn. |
| Good for Grapes have come a long way since winning their first battle of the bands. Last year the band digitally released their album Man on the Page under the Toronto based label Pheromone Recordings. The album was produced by Colin Stewart (Yukon Blonde, Dan Mangan) and was recorded at Hive Studios in Vancouver, BC. |

Raging Fyah
 |
One of the most dynamic groups to hit the Jamaican music scene, Raging Fyah has a sound likened to legendary artists such as Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Third World. Since the “Fyah” was ignited in 2006 in Kingston, Jamaica, these five talented musicians have set out to rekindle a flame of positivity in the music industry. |
| With the release of their first album “Judgement Day” they have gained recognition locally and internationally. With a new album about to drop this year, Raging Fyah is committed to changing the world, note by note, melody by melody, spreading light in areas of darkness, growing when conditions seem most bleak, and demolishing obstacles without remorse. |
