Well, here we are again, folks! It’s been a good year; a busy start leading us into a spectacular summer of festivals and good people across the country, and now in the autumn season in the year of 2013, it’s time for us to once again put all of our trust into the van we love so much, the van that has given everything and taken nothing, a van that forgives us for all of our cursing, urinating in bottles and spilling coffee (along with other liquids, secretions and gross unmentionables) on the upholstery, and go on tour. We will be re-visiting some old haunts and will be performing twice, as well as having a few good beverages with a few good friends, in Calgary for BreakOut West! We’ve had >> read more

Hey guys and gals! Just wanted to let you all know that we are alive and well and back home in Victoria after our long drive and excellent excursion to Sylvan Lake AB for Shake The Lake 2013! We spent a good 3 days of driving in old Van Halen this weekend, truly inspired and surprised by her ability to endure, and we had the distinct privilege of headlining Saturday night’s events at Shake The Lake! Below you will find a video entailing the highlights of the second day at this wonderful, small community festival featuring a good, if not great, helping of amazing local and local-ish talent and the various other activities held at this event… what a day! Check it out! We had an incredible time in Sylvan >> read more

Hello friends! So this summer has been going by so so quickly and we here in the traveling dirt-bag circus otherwise known as Acres Of Lions have been having the time of our lives playing all these crazy summer festivals! We would personally like to thank all of you friends and festival-goers for coming out to see our sunny, sweaty sets these past couple of months… Seriously, Warped Tour in Toronto, Keloha in Kelowna, Rock The Shores, Rock Of The Woods on Vancouver Island… we had such a blast and some life-changing experiences at these events as a band… I mean COME ON, Jimmy Eat World, Weezer, Mathew Good, City And Colour… we had the distinct pleasure of sharing the stage with these acts, bands that we’ve looked up to >> read more

Just a quick and friendly reminder that we will be performing at the Keloha 2013 after-party this evening at Doc Willoughby’s in Kelowna! The after-party will be firing up around 11:00 pm, but make sure to come early to hang and pack the place out for The Treble, a fantastic band who we will be sharing the stage with this evening. This will probably be our billionth time playing at Doc’s but hey, each time is more cherished and memorable than the last. Let’s get sweaty and punk rock all up in everybody’s face! Did we ever mention how into The Arkells we are? Well, we saw them perform at the Island Stage last night and were completely blown away by them, once again… I mean, a terrific Jackson 5 >> read more

We flew out of Kelowna BC Tuesday night and are currently in Toronto, awaiting our performance at this year’s Toronto date of the Vans Warped Tour! We are very excited to be a part of this in 2013 and we’d be lying if we said this wasn’t a fulfillment of a few childhood aspirations! The festival begins today at 11:00 am at the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre and we will be performing on the “Kevin Says” stage this afternoon… there will be more details on the exact time we will be performing at later this morning so make sure to be frequently checking our social media, our TWITTER and our FACEBOOK, to find out and keep up with what is going on throughout the day!
