Stereos

Saturday, June 18th - ArcelorMittal Dofasco Stage - 3:30pm

JUNO Award-nominated band, Stereos, have just completed their 2011 headlining Canadian tour supporting their recently released sophomore album, Uncontrollable. The tour gave audiences a chance to hear Uncontrollable live and sing-a-long to fan favourites from their debut album that put Stereos on the road to success. Their thrilling live shows combine their pop-rock mentality and newly explored electro-club sound.

"Our favourite part of being in a band is to take our music on the road and play for people in as many places as possible,” says lead singer Pat Kordyback. “The club vibe on our new album will make for an upbeat show that we cannot wait to perform. We’re so excited to tour with the other bands and are confident it will be our best experience in Canada yet.”

With the release of their second studio album, band mates Pat Kordyback (Lead Vocals), Miles Holmwood (Lead Guitar / Vocals), Daniel Johnson (Bass Guitar), Robb Chalifoux (Rhythm Guitar) and Aaron Verdonk (Drums) show their growth and confidence as a group by continuing to make music that incorporates several genres - pop, electronic and rock. The first single, Uncontrollable and new single Body Move, maintain the band’s signature catchy lyrics and beats, while driving heavier bass lines and added synths for an overall pop-infused dance sound.

After receiving approval on MuchMusic’s disBAND and being signed to Universal Music Canada, Stereos released their self-titled debut album in October 2009. The first single, Summer Girl debuted at #2 on the Canadian Hot 100, selling over 120,000 units as a digital single. Stereos was certified gold in album sales by the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA) and received two JUNO Award nominations in March 2010 for Best New Artist and Best Pop Album.
