About Me |
|
| Combining best friends, brothers, rock music, some instruments, and teen spirit: you have the recipe for the rock and roll dream. Add talent, vision, and determination and you have The Penguins. These guys are living the dream; writing and playing music, hanging out in recording studios, and gigging in clubs they won't be old enough to get into otherwise for years. This band will take you by surprise! Their hard rock originals have inspired musical depth. They combine these with classic rock covers - everything from Led Zeppelin to Metallica, and newer stuff - Three Days Grace to U2. They play with professionalism and a passion that always inspires their audience. Their talents and abilities reach far beyond their young years!The Penguins already have an impressive list of public performances behind them. Highlights include: Harmony Arts Festival, The Railway (CITR Shindig), The Media Club (Ultimate Jam), Croation Cultural Centre (Supernova Band on the Run), Pacific Coliseum (Garfield Productions Battle of the Bands) - winners of best live performance & best drummer, The Lamplighter (with July Fourth Toilet), Mesa Luna (with The Hazards, Priarie Wolfe, and Elise Boeur), Vancouver East Cultural Centre (Annual Youth Week Festival 2004, 2005, & 2007), UBC SUB Party Room (with The Evaporators), UBC SUB Ballroom (Mardi Gras), Vancouver Children's Festival.Media highlights include: Vancouver's Rock 101 Radio Bro Jake Morning Show 02/07, Much Music interview with Nardwuar (Going Coastal 02/05 & Much on Demand 11/04), The Province e List with Stuart Derdeyn 15/10/04, The Georgia Straight with Jennifer Van Evra 1/12/05, The Vancouver Sun's Queue 28/04/05.
