Vancougar–Canadian Tuxedo–Mint Records
Vancougar Announce US Tour Dates for October
CMJ Showcase @ Fat Baby Oct 24th
What do you get when you add four ladies, one pair of cat eye glasses, East Vancouver, a crate of old records and a minivan named "Maple Syrup"? A rock 'n' roll cocktail of one part retro pop, and one part attitude, and the latest band to sign to Mint Records: Vancougar. These ladies will be taking the road in support of their latest release, Canadian Tuxedo (Mint) starting October 22nd, in Boston. They'll also be making an appearance at CMJ on October 24th before playing their way across the States, ending in Seattle, WA. Check out their single, "Obvious" to get a sneak peek at the 60's-girl-group-gone-garage-rock sound you'll get to witness live.
Vancougar is Eden Fineday, Becca Stewart, Megan Johnson and CC Rose (The Cinch, Pink Mountaintops). They just released Canadian Tuxedo this summer, which was recorded at JC/DC Studios (New Pornographers, Tegan and Sara, Bella).

Vancougar in the Press:
"a sound featuring enough psychedelic organ gush to get a decent head rush going. This quarter is hard to pigeon-hole..." - Harp Magazine
"The void left by the recent demise of Sleater-Kinney seems a little smaller when you're listening to this dark, driven song about knowledge and vulnerability." - The Globe and Mail
"Garage musicianship and singer Eden Fineday's petulant, cracking vocals make every sugary hoook feel like it might turn into a rock tantrum." - Chartattack.com
