Grand Theft Bus

 

Fredericton, NB

Grand Theft Bus have been making their breed of eclectic pop music since the dawn of the millennium. Their three albums, Birth of Confusion(2002), Flies in the No-Fly(2005), and Made Upwards(2008), are all incredibly different records in feel and tone but are similar in that each possesses a great mix of styles and captures a restless band following their muse wherever it leads them. Songs can vary from basic guitar pop to dark synthesizer-driven anthems to instrumental pieces with electronic flourishes.

Graeme and Tim Walker, Dennis Goodwin and Bob Deveau (core members since very early on in the band’s history) have recently added Brad Perry to the fold on keyboards. While helping to deepen the dimension of GTB’s sound, Brad is also engineering the group’s fourth album. The warm tones on the new album have given this batch of songs a continuity perhaps unlike any Grand Theft Bus release to date. The guys are beyond excited to have the album’s finish line in site and look forward to sharing the music with both new and familiar faces on the road.
