Yukon Blonde - Brides Song

Armed with a collection of songs written in the back of the van, in venue parking lots and an icebox of a rehearsal space, Yukon Blonde went into the studio in the summer of 2009 to record their first album- which was recently released in both Canada and USA by Bumstead Records, receiving rave reviews from such publications as Exclaim, Under The Radar and Billboard.

While on tour with Jon-Rae Fletcher in the summer of 2008, the band - then known as Alphababy - realized that they needed a new change of pace. Taking some of the ideas conceived on the tour, the band returned to Kelowna, locking themselves away for half a year to write new songs in a freezing cold jam space by the Okanagan Lake. It was around this time that they partnered with long-time friend Nick Bernal of Nevado Records and began working towards releasing an album.

After some set-backs that year, including the head-on collision that ended the life of their van. The band aligned themselves with producer Shawn Cole (Bend Sinister, You Say Party! We Say Die!), and recorded the 14 songs they had written.

Four of these songs became the bands debut EP "Everything in Everyway" (Nevado, 2009) which they released under the new moniker, Yukon Blonde. Soon after, they hit the road for a 37-date mostly Canadian tour including stops at POP Montreal, Halifax POP Explosion and CMJ.

The remaining 10 songs were then released as the band's self-titled debut LP (Bumstead Records). With over 80 shows in the first 6 months of 2010 - including showcases at SXSW, NYC, Chicago and L.A.- Yukon Blonde is currently busy touring North America in support of the album.
