WHO: Peter van Helvoort, Jeff van Helvoort, Patrick Marchent, Cameron Brunt
HOMETOWN: Toronto, Ontario
GENRE: Rock
LATEST RELEASE: Shook Our Bones (7-inch)
WHY YOU’LL LOVE THEM: Southern rock may be making a statement south of the border but Teenage Kicks are causing quite the rustle right here in the great north. Driven to not be plastered on trendsetting magazines, the Toronto foursome produce 60s’ soul melodies reminiscent of groups like Creedence Clearwater Revival and times when rock n’ roll was highlighted by tales of emotion and not glam or glory.
SOUNDS LIKE: Tender love-making in a summer cabin up north.
