Won First Prize on 7/27/2010
Who are The Saucy Wenches you may ask? Are we a young energetic band from Calgary Alberta devoted to our love of music and that maybe one day we will go on to inspire a generation and bring hope to many? Hardly. Rather we are a bunch of leather clad lunatics trashing our instruments for the sake of rock and roll. We like to play music that gets the crowd going and the emotions flowing, whether that has to be some form of rock or something slower to hit that soft spot we all know we have. Ab...

Etobicoke, Ontario
Won Second Prize on 7/28/2010
The Loose Talk has been around in some shape or form since 2009 when vocalist/guitarist Andrew Beg first tried to write a few tunes and get a little blues rock trio started.
