The Stanfields
Everyone has a story to tell about The Stanfields; if you don't, give it time. Inciting mosh pits and still making mom proud, The Stanfields attract fans of all classes and creeds with their rhythm-fueled hard rock laced with traditional roots sounds. There are no glamorous motives–just five working class Canadians with an honest desire to entertain. They have released two alt rock albums to date, Vanguard of the Young and Reckless and Death & Taxes, and their most recent acoustic album For King and Country.
"Too many of these bands sound like Pogues wannabes, but that's not where The Stanfields are coming from. They want to rock very hard, honour traditional East Coast music, and sing about being from a place with hard-working people, the ones they grew up with, and the ones in their audience." –Bob Mersereau, CBC
