BEST IN VANCOUVER 2026 FINALS

FEATURING

Matty Miller & The Barge Boys

After cutting their teeth in the Vancouver Pub scene, Matty Miller and The Barge Boys joined forces to provide a unique blend of power house vocals, screaming electric guitars, heart stopping drum solos and three part harmonies. Drawing from an eclectic blend of 60's and 70's influences, they create nostalgic soundscapes while telling vivid stories of Canadian life. Known for their infectious energy and crowd engagement, they have built up a loyal and dedicated fan base in Vancouver.

Trip Switch

Trip Switch’s riff-driven sound combines catchy choruses with heart-thumping breakdowns. Founded in late 2024, they’ve spent the last couple of years carving out their sound while building a steady-fanbase in Vancouver. In March of 2026, they opened for the Australian touring band Radium Dolls twice, playing shows at The Pearl and the Fox Cabaret. Since then, they’ve been booked at The Hollywood Theatre, Khatsahlano Street Party, and Rickshaw Theatre.
