Aliqua
Not a typical choir, but also not quite a band, Aliqua is a unique female vocal group with a style all its own. From world music, to gospel, from jazz to classical, blues pop and chant, Aliqua covers some serious ground, aiming to reinvent the concept of 'choral'. The group has won many international awards and has becoming known for its signature modern, original and edgy style. Aliqua signed with Nettwerk Records last year and their self-titled new album, produced by Ashwin Sood and Dru Masters, is due out in September of 2008.

Ryan McMahon
A month after releasing a new collection of songs into the world, Ryan McMahon is gearing up for a very big 2008. Ryan and his band mates, Mike Rogerson (guitar/producer) and Dustin Young (bass/back up vocals), have road-tested their songs across Western Canada repeatedly over the past two years with growing audiences. With influences like Warren Zevon, Pearl Jam, Led Zeppelin, Ryan Adams, and Bob Dylan, Ryan McMahon’s sound is as varied as his personality. Mixing equal parts of tongue-in-cheek humor with tragedy and heartbreak, the songs that come out are all easily related to by many a music fan.
