The Flying Steamshovel http://www.theflyingsteamshovel.com A Historic Inn and Saloon in Rossland, British Columbia Mon, 20 Feb 2012 20:52:08 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Animal Nation http://www.theflyingsteamshovel.com/coming-events/animal-nation/ http://www.theflyingsteamshovel.com/coming-events/animal-nation/#comments Mon, 20 Feb 2012 20:45:55 +0000 Shovel http://www.theflyingsteamshovel.com/?p=717 Friday March 30th,2012

Animal Nation is: Steige “Tall Man” Turner, and Mike “Armadillo Slim” Armitage. Animal Nation formed in 2004 after a heated argument between the two not-then members, over the quality of another band’s performance. The members of Animal Nation are hesitant to call their music ‘hip-hop’ because a lot of hip-hop sucks. The members of Animal Nation think this is unfortunate because they really, really love good hip-hop, but know that the general population thinks that hip-hop sucks as well. Animal Nation is the greatest band you will ever hear. After listening to Animal Nation it will henceforth be impossible to appreciate any other sort of music that is not Animal Nation. You’re life will be changed. You will win the next big lottery.

Shred Kelly is a formulation of friends and foot stompin’ good times born in the East Kootenay’s of British Columbia. Hailing from the town of Fernie, the five-piece band is best known for mixing clawhammer banjo riffs that tear the fabric of space and time with high voltage guitars, fierce drums, and hauntingly sweet harmonies to produce a sound that has been properly coined “Stoke Folk”. Singing songs about powder days, tornado destruction, and a sincere distaste for work, these ski bums, are consistently turning doubters into sweaty folk rock believers on the dance floor.

Western Canada’s Jesse Dee & Jacquie B are on a roll. A high-energy rock n’ roll journey across the airwaves and highways, with their acclaimed new album Our Ghosts Will Fill These Walls. They are a powerhouse duo playing an undeniably catchy brand of roots rock; one half gritty electric rock, and one half soulful and harmonious roots-pop, somewhere between The Band or The Grateful Dead, and Ani DiFranco or Luke Doucet. See them on stage and you’ll see why all the buzz, they harmonize beautifully, compliment each others playing and create a force to be reckoned with in their music.
