INFO
White Licorice will play anywhere, anytime.
Band Email info: Charlie Jim Rogers BIO White Licorice formed early 2003 with the mandate of condensing the familiar forms of pop, rock, punk and hardcore into a highly concentrated, muscular and stripped down new form. A power trio in the truest sense of the phrase. Matt Prendergast (guitars, vocals) and Jason Kenny (aka JK, drums) had come to Vancouver from Ontario in the early nineties and played together in various bands (Trapazoid, Freon, the Mushroom Factory) before finding themselves standing in the ashes of yet another project that had disintergrated just when it seemed to be getting somewhere. In 2000 they took a break, with Matt playing with the Khyber Rifles, and JK in Chasin' Jones and Sound Pressure Manifest. While in S.P.M. JK struck up a friendship with one in an almost endless sucsession of bass players in that band, Greg Buhr, veteran of such local acts as Lead Pipe Cinch, the Manvils, Maxi dadd and Mr. Pink. Here was a motherfucker who had been around. Here was the man who could take it to another level. Armed with the most ambiguous name possible, White Licorice embarked on a rigorous, sweaty, beer soaked late night practice schedule. The writing process was fast and loose, no preconceptions, and no settling for anything less than something amazing.
