Bio

Formed in the summer of 2002 when four teenagers decided they needed something other to do then take up snowmobiling or hunting. Going against the grain of the small rural Manitoban town of Beausejour, Alverstone was born. Undergoing a few line up changes over the last two years, we now consist of Kevin Desjarlais, Bobby Desjarlais and Chris Peluk. Warren Massey was added and has been with us for the last eight months, taking care of everything percussion, except Kevin's precious tambourine. Fusing the different influences of all four members in the song writing process, we achieve a sound distinctly our own, with hints of our inspirations throughout our music. The Pixies, the Ramones, the Strokes, Hot Hot Heat, Lou Reed, the Sex Pistols, Blur, Radiohead and Franz Ferdinand to name a few. Think of it as garage punk meets dance rock with a slight pop undertone. Catchy songs and a high energy/high emotion stage show are staples of the Alverstone experience that always keep people comming back for more. Cited as one of Winnipeg's Uptown magazine's bands to watch in 2006, Alverstone is ready to make some waves in the Canadian music scene.
