THE PACK A.D. SIGNS WITH CADENCE MUSIC, RELEASES NEW SINGLE βSO WHATβ
VANCOUVER DUO ANNOUNCES TWO HOMETOWN PERFORMANCES ON MAY 12 AND 13 AT THE COBALT
Destruction and melody, acid wit and bruising vocalsβthis is The Pack A.D. Singer/guitarist Becky Black and drummer Maya Miller have made a sound so gigantic, so fierce and raw and empowering, that itβs easy to forget there are just two people behind this brilliant, carefully constructed havoc.
Now the west coast duo are pleased to announce their signing with Cadence Music (Formerly MapleMusic Recordings). βWe are so excited to welcome The Pack A.D. to the Cadence Music family,β says Cadence Music General Manager Tony Tarleton. βThey have been favs in our office for a long time and we are all pumped to be working with them.β βCadence has really gotten everything about us, it feels like we’re fans in this together,β says Miller. βItβs a perfect recipe: two parts us, one part Cadence Music and then, like, all of Drake’s Raptor courtside time. In a nutshell, I think we’re all winning here.β
To celebrate The Pack A.D. is sharing their new single βSo Whatβ which is, muses the band, βan anthem for the major to minor disconnection and dissatisfaction in us all.β
Shredding and pounding their way through every song, the Pack A.D. swallows you whole inside their fearless Franken-blend of heavy psych-pop/garage-rock. Their lyrics are wild nests, human and complex; darkly funny disclosures about depression, indictments of digital excess, grief-stricken fire bombs, sly crusades against stupidity.
The Pack A.D. is also one of Canadaβs βmust-seeβ bands. Be it a massive stadium or the slightly seedy bar where everybodyβs shoes stick to the carpet, The Pack A.D. have owned every spotlight and stolen every show theyβve ever played. Becky and Maya are relentless and riveting, playing with the kind of fuck-off freedom that makes everybody in the room vicarious rock stars, even if itβs just for the night. The Pack A.D. will perform in Vancouver on May 12 and May 13 at The Cobalt and more Canadian dates will be announced soon.
