Vancouver has had a history of shining its light on some incredible talents across many different genres. While doing so many generations have been able to come across artists that speak to them, as the city and our country become more inclusive to all people. In our sector, there is a new band on campus, and they call themselves Strange Breed.

Nicolle Bell-Dupas (Vocals/Guitar), Terra Chaplin (Lead Guitar), Megan Bell-Dupas (Drums), and Jess Dubois (Bass) have formed the Vancouver based 4-piece to allow us the pleasure of releasing some pent up frustration many of us have held onto for the past year and a bit. This “no-holds-barred” of a band is ready to blow your eardrums in the most perfect way possible. While taking inspiration from 90’s femme-rock, Strange Breed is here to deliver a new wave of dominant alternative rock music.

The self-described “all queer, all-female alternative rock band based out of Vancouver, BC.” is here to deliver some in-your-face alternative rock music that’s felt like it’s been missing in the past few years. After their debut album Permanence. in 2019 they have been able to keep the momentum going in 2020-2021 with a few singles called “Reputation” and “Tethers“.

With their latest single “So Blind” having been released on August 6th, 2021 the band looks to be on its way upwards within the Vancouver music scene. With 149,555 streams so far on Spotify, this local western-Canadian band is ready to make its mark on a generation that has lacked in raw, female alternative rock bands.

This is the exact type of music we need right now as we attempt to come out of what’s been such an up and down year. For some, this will fill the exact void that was missing, and for others a new take on classic sounds. Check them out on all major platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and definitely YouTube.
