“It’s been with us since the beginning.”
“It brought us together when we were teenagers, and in the 5 years since it’s been a reminder of the dreams we hold so dearly and of the friendship that brings us together. When you have something special like that, people who bring out the you that you want to be, you can never take it for granted.”
“I frequently feel that our past selves are still talking to us through this song, reminding us of who we truly are and of the reasons why we are still doing this whole band thing. I am constantly faced with the fact that I’m stuck with these morons for life, being quite frequently the larger moron myself. Silly as it is, that is what I truly want.”

About us
We live to create.
Creation is our journey, our way of understanding and experiencing the world around us and ourselves.
We are not the source, but the translators of our ideas, and can only sit back in awe as their relationships to our world change with every experience we inherit.
We hold the instruments, but not the music in our hands
When we get together to celebrate music, we celebrate life itself: the bewildering condition we find ourselves in, miraculous in each and every moment.
We long for the next exhilarating journey to the unknowable ends of our creative process.
We cannot think of anything else.

Press features
“These young rockers have been wowing Vancouver crowds for the last couple of years with their high-energy performances, playing notable venues like the Rickshaw and the Wise Hall. They recently ventured out east on their first cross-Canada tour, which included a show at NXNE 2023.
- Francis Baptiste, Exclaim! New Faves July 2023
“Bleako’s Nuclear Disco. One of the more unique sets of the night but don’t that fool you because their set was really good. The crowd packed early for the fascinating vocals and duel guitar concept the group provided.”
- Josh Szirmay-Corrales, Rocktographers: Rifflandia 2023
