The Reed Effect are a 3 piece power grunge/rock trio from Toronto, Ontario that kicksASS !! I have seen this band 3 times, twice as a band and once as an acoustic duo. Kirk and the band never disappoint !! New EP A Strange Curiosity contains 6 rippin tracks and is out now. From their FB bio : If you’re into the kind of guitar riffs that scar you for life, bass lines that vibrate your skull and a drummer who hits so hard he should be convicted of instrumental murder, then you should check out The Reed Effect at the links below. Could’nt have said it better myself !!

CanadaROCKS featuring The Ballroom Babies !!

Tuesday, June 14th, 2016 - Posted in temp

The Ballroom Babies are a power blues rock trio from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, featuring three Colucci brothers: Mike (drums/vocals), Steve (guitar/vocals) and Nathan (bass/vocals). They just released the single and video for “I Won’t Change”, which just happens to be the first release since all three quit their day jobs to pursue the music bizz full time !! If this song is any indication, the brothers have made the right choice. Incredible vocal harmonies, wicked bluesy riffs and a tight bass/drum rhythm section will blow your ASS right off that comfie chair you been sitting in. “I Won’t Change” will leave you crying for more of “The Ballroom Babies” !! You can catch them on tour in different parts of Ontario this summer through the end of August !! Check out the links below and remember the Trike’s Trax motto :
