What do you get when you order the best band ever on Wish? The Pretty Goods! Starting as

a "just for fun" basement band in 2016, the Pretty Goods found their niche playing mostly

late 80's to modern rock, grunge, and alternative. Officially forming a trio after many nights

jamming in the basement, and at The Gary O Show open mic, they finally made their debut

performance in Prince Albert with the 2023 Kinsmen Fest of Ale, followed by many Thursday

night shows at Mr Mike's lounge. Original founding members Ryan Vermette, Becky

Mihilewicz, and Joel Mihilewicz were recently joined by Drummer, Chesley Herzog, and are

excited to now be performing as a 4-piece with a full band rock sound. With a mix of popular

hits and deep tracks covering a wide span of mainstream and independent bands, the Pretty

Goods will leave you saying, "Hey, these guys are pretty good!"

 From the stage to the studio, The Brothers G deliver a moonshine punch that delivers the raw grit of a gravel road with the soulful resonance of blues-infused rock 'n' roll. With roots planted firmly in the prairie soil of Hafford, Saskatchewan, Jason and Jordan Gall, along with fellow Hafford product Elias Brevik and British Columbia transplant Kit Langfield, bring a sound that is pure prairie. Their recently released self-titled album, an ambitious project recorded live at their home studio, captures the all-out intensity of their live performances.

 Iconic harmonies and snappy quips! Endearing as they are endeavoring in their musicality, Chesterfield masterfully pulls and pries all kinds of weird and wonderful out of their sound. Chesterfield draws its influence from a large well of inspiration, weaving elements of blues, surf, post-punk, and outlaw to build on an eclectic foundation of psychedelic rock and roll. Hailing from Saskatoon, the members of Chesterfield developed instant synergy, and they have already begun to cement themselves as the top genre-hopping band in the Saskatchewan music scene. They have amassed a large repertoire of memorable toe-tapping original material, drawing complexity and depth out of their honest and simplistic approach to songwriting. Their live experience is a deluge of 3 part-harmonies, catchy hooks and driving guitars, all painted onto a canvas of groovy, yet accessible rhythms that will keep you glued to the dancefloor. Their studio album Synthetic Fingers is now available on all platforms.

From the first time stepping on stage it was only 9 short months later that Kelly was headling. In just his second year of comedy, Kelly Taylor shocked the comedy industry by placing second in the prestigious Just for Laughs Homegrown competition. Competing against comics who have been in the business for ten plus years, Kelly Taylor firmly made his mark at JFL. His performance did not go unnoticed as creative heads from NBC Universal, Happy Gilmore Productions and Jimmy Kimmel quickly approached with interest. Later that year Kelly did a tour of the Canadian Colleges, and was Named Canadian College Comedian of the year.

Already conquering Canada he has now moved on to being one the busiest comedians on the American college scene. Kelly Also starred as the lead role in the movie Sure Shot Dombrowski. Kelly's ability to headline clubs, corporate and college events at just three years into his budding career is evidence that this kid is the real deal. Aside from Just for Laughs, he has already appeared at The Vancouver and Halifax Comedy Festivals. Kelly has performed all across the country including LA and New York City at some of the most well respected clubs in the industry.
