PLANTS is a alternative hard rock band from Stratford, Ontario. Formed in 2014, vocalist/guitarist Sam Love, guitarist Brad Zoeller, bassist Max Santandrea, and drummer Ethan McCarroll began as a cover band, covering their favourite pop-rock hits from the 90's, and energetic, riff driven rock songs, playing to crowds at the local Stratford Legion. After gaining a steady following of fans over three years and being driven out of each other's houses for practice time, PLANTS looks onward to blending their creative minds together to create unique original music. With a writing process that involves all four members, each member is able to incorporate their influences within PLANTS original music.

WSJS Ep. 32 The Common Chase
"It started with a common dream, a common goal and a common influence that all included one thing — music.
The Common Chase is a Toronto-based rock band made up of four musicians: Adriano Loparco, Carolina Rodriguez, Jesse Shafer and Taylor Simpson. The idea of a band came to be in a local music program, where our members were studying songwriting and performance. Each with their own, individual background and tastes in music, they decided to bring together their experiences and talents and create art to share with the world. "

" - A Label for Artists Run by Artists - " Gattsby Records, is a label founded by artists, for artists. At this record company our vision was to bring the focus back to the artist's music and remove the unwanted harshness of major label business practice. As musicians ourselves we understand artist concerns on the business front and the annoyance of marketing, distribution, and confusing contracts. We get it, artists want to do one thing and that's make kick ass music. Founded in London, Ontario our label strives to take the stress away from talented artists by providing them with marketing assistance (social media, website design, photographs), gig booking, digital distribution (Spotify, Apple Music), recording sessions, and production advice.

WSJS Ep. 29 - Ready The Prince
Throughout history, kings and queens have ruled their respective civilizations. Inevitably, each and every reign of power must come to an end, much like that of the long history of rock ‘n roll supremacy. 2018 marks one of the darkest hours for lovers of unabashed guitar bands. The ever shifting “pop” spotlight now shines miles away – some would go as far as saying widespread rock music is forever dead, and that the kings and queens have all gone and passed.
When they say the king is dead, we say Ready the Prince.

WSJS Ep. 28 - Jailbirds
"Jailbirds started with one goal in mind, to be the best that they can possibly be at making rock n roll music. It's what they live for. It's what they think about from the moment they wake up, to the moment they go to sleep at night. Since January of 2016, three Jailbirds - Myke, Liam and Eric - have been working together to create fresh, strong, catchy, guitar-driven rock n roll music. "
