DEAD BOB WITH GUESTS MVLL CRIMES — LIVE AT MILLS HARDWARE!

Dead Bob is the solo incarnation of John Wright, drummer of long time and apparently legendary, but now retired, Punk rock band No Means No. “Life Like”, a NMN cover actually, is the title track of the first album John has released on his own. Recorded and Produced by John in the wilds of British Columbia, this album's material spans several decades and there is lots more in the archives. Though primarily written and performed by John he can’t take all the credit having engaged the help of several friends to get this thing done. Byron Slack (Invasives), Kristy Lee Audette (Rong), Ford Pier (Ford Pier and the Vengeance Trio, DOA, Roots Round up, Junior Gone Wild, Rheostatics), Selina Martin, his son Aidan Wright, as well as two old collabs with brother Rob in the writer’s chair. As might be expected the songs roll out cohesively but defy the cookie cutter pigeon holes, hence "Genre" is a tough one to convey but one thing that is not unclear is it is not to be listened to quietly! Play loud and enjoy! Then come see Dead Bob all Live Like! John has teamed with Ford, Byron, Kristy and good friend Colin MacRae (Pigment Vehicle) on Electric Bass Guitar. We aim to make sure you hear it all good and loud!

Formed in 2019 out of a need to create something heavy and thought-provoking, Patrick Briggs asked Jillian Clair to join him in his newest musical project, Mvll Crimes (pronounced “Mall Crimes"). Writing their first EP in an afternoon, and recording it in the same amount of time, Patrick waited until Jill finished her masters degree before recording her vocals. Finishing the formation of the band with the best musicians they know; Bassist, Laurie McColeman and Drummer, Evan Martin, Mvll Crimes would self-release their 2020 debut tape Rovdside Vttrvctions just as the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world and closed every venue. Not resting on their laurels, Mvll Crimes would take this time to write and record their 2021 follow up EP Bootlicker's Delight and begin touring their native Canada as soon as restrictions began lifting. Catching the attention of up-andcoming Toronto record label Cursed Blessings Records, Mvll Crimes would record and release their latest 2022 effort You Embvrrvss Me on vinyl and digital distribution through the label. Mvll Crimes have since began working with South Paw Booking who covers all their Canadian touring dates, and are currently working with American managers to coordinate U.S. touring. You can find Mvll Crimes on the road touring consistently throughout Canada and beyond.
