401 East + Band in Pickering, ON

SEEKING

ABOUT

We are seven friends building a band to faithfully cover classic rock songs of the 70's, 80's and beyond. We are looking to make some great music and have fun, but NOT to gig. Our goal is to stage an impressive, high production value show for our families and friends in August 2024, and then move on to produce annual shows with any proceeds going to local charities of our choice.

We practice weekly in our state-of-the-art home performing/recording studio in Pickering, with a dry stage, the ability to manage your own monitor mix, and all song lyrics synced on ipads.

Please listen to our music tracks, full (with backing tracks for drums, guitar, brass & vocal reference) and keys and bass so you can hear us play live.

If you are an advanced performer and share our passion, let us know if you want to be part of something special.
