Ten years on and counting, they can boast of four studio albums, two EPs, and hundreds of unforgettable live shows spanning the globe. They’ve blended punk rock and a bunch of European folk traditions with a power and range that few other groups can match. And it’s been a blast. thedreadnoughts.com The Real McKenziesFounded in 1992 by the larger than life, Scottish punk-rock poet laureate, Mr Paul McKenzie, this merry band of miscreants has spent a quarter century circumnavigating the globe to bring the McKenzies gospel to an ever-expanding throng of rebels, scallywags and ne’er do wells. There’s not many bands that can boast of an over 30-year career as staggeringly adventurous, wildly tempestuous and utterly death-defying as The Real McKenzies. realmckenzies.com Distorted TimesDistorted Times is a DIY punk band from Portland Oregon consisting of members Kevin Hudson, Jay Crash, Ian Jackson, and Brit Kaplan.

ACTORS and The Rickshaw Present ACTORSWith guests, MØAA and DecommeSaturday, April 19th, 2025 The Rickshaw Theatre19+Doors: 7:00pmACTORSVancouver's ACTORS electrify with a modern take on post-punk. Their anthemic songs evoke the urgency of early-80’s U2, as well as the driving, synth drenched scores that emanated from the era's movie screens. As scene authority Post-Punk.com puts it, the band conjures “cinematic new-wave... that belongs on a Michael Mann soundtrack. To put it simply, ACTORS produce addictively dancey, uplifting and melancholy sounds... Beautiful, dark music. ACTORS has toured and established fanbases across the USA, Canada, and Europe. www.actorstheband.com MØAAComing off the back of her gothic shoegaze debut album Euphoric Recall released in 2021, MØAA unleashed her second full length album Jaywalker ; a nocturnal dream pop record featuring pulsing 909 drum machines submerged under catchy hushed vocals and glistening, reverb laden guitars. Fuzzed out bass lines from the first album have been swapped out with fat chorus and throbbing synths built for melancholic dancing. The new album which was released on October 13th, 2023 was written entirely by Seattle born musician, Jancy Buffington, but as with Euphoric Recall , she worked with collaborator Andrea Volpato who co-produced, mixed, and recorded Jaywalker at Fox Studio in Seattle, Washington. Since the inception of the project in 2021, MØAA has headlined global tours in the United States, Europe, and the UK, performed at the official SXSW 2022 & 2024 showcase, Ypsigrock Festival in Sicily, MIL Festival in Lisbon, and shared the stage with Yves Tumor and The Dandy Warhols and toured with LA Shoegazers - Film School - in January 2023 down the West Coast. MØAA also headlined their own Jaywalker album release tours in Texas, the East Coast, and West Coast and a European & UK headlining tour in February 2024 to support the new album. moaamusic.com DecommeDECOMME is a two-piece band from Vancouver, BC, blending elements of goth rock, darkwave and post-punk to create a haunting and evocative sound.decomme.bandcamp.com Refund PolicyNo refunds, unless event is cancelled.
